No. Each local government (municipality, including island municipalities and the Sechelt Indian Government District, regional district, school district, and the Islands Trust) is responsible for running its own election, and appoints a Chief Election Officer to ensure the process is run according to the Local Government Act. Elections British Columbia is responsible for running elections and by-elections for Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs) in the province of British Columbia.
