 | | The canvassers must register with Elections BC, and carry a canvasser identification card, indicating that they are registered to canvass for this recall petition. |
 | | The Act states that if more than 40% of the registered voters, who were eligible to vote for a particular Member when he or she was elected, sign a recall petition within the 60-day canvassing period, and the proponent has complied with the recall financing provisions, that MLA’s seat becomes vacant. |
 | | After a petition is returned, Elections BC has 42 days in which to verify the signatures. |
