John Rustad
Leader, BC Conservative Party
7 March 2025
"Using your stature and platform as an MLA to mock testimony from victims alleging abuse, including child sex abuse, is where I draw the line."
Her public record
This campaign is non-partisan and not connected to party affiliation. The reason for the recall is the community exercising its democratic privilege when, in the view of many of her constituents, their MLA is not performing the duties of representation and is pursuing positions that differ from those on which she was elected.

Her job
Nineteen months with no constituency office in the riding.
Up until late May 2026, the Legislative Assembly of BC listed no constituency office address for Ms Brodie. A listing has since appeared, coinciding with the start of this recall campaign.
Largely unresponsive to constituent correspondence and community events.
In the campaign's own words at recallbrodie.com: Ms Brodie "has failed to respond to many constituent concerns, and has been largely absent from community events and opportunities to engage with residents."
Used public caucus funds to produce Making a Killing, a feature documentary, released 2 December 2025.
Ms Brodie has publicly declined to disclose the amount spent. CHEK News reports the BC government has indicated it may change caucus funding rules in response.
Sponsored a private bill on 20 November 2025 to repeal Truth and Reconciliation Day.
Sponsored as her own bill, not a Vancouver-Quilchena constituency matter.
Cited for misuse of public funds by named Indigenous leaders.
In a joint statement on 5 November 2025, Penticton Indian Band Chief Greg Gabriel and Okanagan Nation Alliance Tribal Chair Clarence Louie stated: "Brodie stands accused of using public funds, inside and outside the B.C. Legislature, to create and distribute racist and anti-Indigenous materials."
Her party
Vancouver-Quilchena elected Dallas Brodie in October 2024 as a member of the BC Conservative Party. Six months later, the Conservative Party itself expelled her for the positions she was publicly taking. She has since formed a new party of her own. The MLA the riding now has, and the agenda she is pursuing, are not what was on the ballot.

Chief, Tk'emlúps te Secwépemc

"She's determined to undermine public trust, reconciliation, and what she's saying threatens the safety of Indigenous peoples."
Grand Chief Stewart Phillip
President, Union of BC Indian Chiefs (UBCIC)

"Ms. Brodie's picking and choosing of which facts to scrutinize is a misuse of her power in public office and demonstrates her bias and a profound disrespect for survivors of Residential Schools."
Regional Chief Terry Teegee
BC Assembly of First Nations
3 November 2025
"The actions of MLA Brodie and her party, OneBC, in actively promoting and using public funds to create and distribute Residential School denialism and anti-Indigenous rhetoric, both within and outside the Legislative Assembly, have shown division, fear and hatred."
Walter Mineault
President, Métis Nation British Columbia
March 2025
"Comments like these, and disingenuous behaviour by an elected official, have no place in our public discourse. The Indian Residential Schools destroyed our people."
Union of BC Indian Chiefs
Open letter to UBC
January 2026
"Residential School denialism proliferates under the guise of academic freedom and freedom of speech, and promotes white supremacy, racism, and misinformation which should not be permitted in public institutions."
