CAMPAIGN FINANCE
How to check this party's money
Elections BC regulates campaign financing in local elections. Its register, dated October 30, 2026, lists the Advance Richmond Community Association for Richmond and the Richmond School District.
Elections BC says an elector organization must file a financial report within 90 days after general voting day for each election it takes part in, and by March 31 for each calendar year. General voting day was October 17, 2026, so no report on this election is published yet.
By its own account the organization registered in 2025, so it has no filing from the 2022 election.
On October 17, 2026 the organization published a statement on its site answering photos and videos that it says were circulated online and in messaging groups, alleging that it refused to pay bills and lacked funds. The statement says it has continued to make payments to suppliers and that the claim is false. voche.me found no report of the allegation by a news outlet and no complaint on Elections BC's site. The people who circulated the material are not named.
Its site asks for donations to each candidate's campaign.

What we have not done yet
- Elections BC has published no financial report from Advance Richmond. The report on the 2026 election is due within 90 days after general voting day.
- The register gives no date of registration, so voche.me does not know whether an annual report for 2025 was due.

Party money and candidate money are separate
The filings on this page belong to the party. An individual candidate files their own return, and their nomination papers sit on their own profile page. The two are never added together here.
