      It's starting to look as though the B.C. Greens and the NDP are ready to work together.

      According to a 1:01 p.m. B.C. Green party advisory, the two party leaders will speak to journalists at 2 p.m. at the B.C. legislature.

      "BC New Democrat leader John Horgan and BC Green leader Andrew Weaver will make a significant announcement about the future of British Columbia’s government," the advisory states.

      The B.C. Liberals will have 43 seats after MLAs are sworn in. The NDP will have 41 and the Greens will have three. If the Greens agree to support the NDP, then Horgan can become premier and be assured of a bare one-seat majority in any confidence votes that come up in thehouse.

      Earlier today, B.C. Liberal Leader Christy Clark went on Twitter to say she's looking for a deal to bring "four years of stability" to the province.
