VICTORIA — Green Party Leader Sonia Furstenau has lost her seat in the legislature after changing ridings to Victoria-Beacon Hill.

Furstenau lost to Grace Lore, the minister of children and family development in the previous NDP government.

The Green leader was first elected 2017, when her party played a key roll in helping the New Democrats form government with a confidence and supply agreement between the two parties.
