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 Common Sense Alliance Association for Richmond and the Richmond School District.
A search of Elections BC's scanned reports on October 30, 2026 for filers named Common Sense returned no reports.
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.
The organization's site has a donation page and asks for lawn sign and poster requests.

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.
