Third party advertising sponsors must follow the election advertising rules outlined in the _Local Elections Campaign Financing Act_.

Third party advertising is any election advertising published during a pre-campaign period or campaign period that is not sponsored by a candidate or elector organization.

Third party advertising sponsors in local elections must:

*   register with Elections BC before conducting any advertising,
*   include their name and contact information on all advertising,
*   be independent and not sponsor advertising on behalf of, or together with, a candidate or elector organization,
*   not spend more than the [expense limits](https://elections.bc.ca/local-elections/advertising-rules/third-party-expense-limits/), and
*   file a disclosure statement.
