"If," like you said. Note that Canada doesn't have a presidential system, and the popular vote doesn't determine who's in charge; the federal Liberals
lost the vote three years ago and yet
won five seats (not a 1:1 comparison, but the point still stands).
At last check, the NDP still have a roughly ten-point lead in the Lower Mainland where all the swing ridings are; "if" United's 10% were evenly spread across the whole province, they'd have to step on the gas, but it's not.

This development will absolutely change the race.
Your BC NDP overconfidence is misplaced.
