On July 30 (August 1), the SPCBC met to establish a national political agenda in western Canada. Socialist and labour party delegates included the SPCBC at the Western Labour Conference, in Calgary. Fourteen United Farmers of Alberta delegates were included in choosing a name for a new nationwide socialist-labour party, the Co-operative Commonwealth Federation. Delegates included nineteen jobless men and women of The Great Depression. The Socialist Party of Canada (BC Section) merged with the Co-operative Commonwealth Federation in 1933 to become the British Columbia section of the CCF. In August, the SPCBC and the CCF (BC) became associated CCF clubs. SPC members Ernest Winch and Harold Winch were elected to the British Columbia Legislative Assembly as CCF MLAs.
