About
David Xie is the Conservative Party of BC candidate for Burnaby South-Metrotown, filed with Elections BC for the October 24, 2026 election. The Conservatives confirmed and announced him on September 30, 2026. His New Burnaby civic profile says he has lived in Metro Vancouver his whole life and in Burnaby for almost a decade, where he and his wife are raising their son; that he is a UBC graduate and a recruitment professional; and that he has advocated on public safety, health care, government accountability, neighbourhood planning, and completion of Burnaby Hospital Phase 2. He had entered the October 17, 2026 Burnaby council election with New Burnaby. After the provincial election was called, he told Daily Hive he was no longer seeking a council seat, but that it was too late to take his name off the municipal ballot. The City of Burnaby’s candidate-withdrawal deadline had been September 18. No earlier provincial or federal candidacy turned up in records checked for this profile.
