political_financing_links

B.C. political financing: what the system holds and where to search it

A link-only overview of Elections BC's Financial Reports and Political Contributions System: what it says it holds, its provincial search types, and links to the system, its search options and the combined contributions file information page, so a person can search it by hand. BC Data does NOT provide contributor names, amounts, totals, downloads or any filing data: the system states no reuse licence and its contributor data is personal information at scale.

Cost: 1 unit of your allowance (see Rate limits).

Parameters

  • kind (system, search_guide, file_info, optional)

curl -X POST https://api.bcmcp.ca/v1/tools/political_financing_links \

  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"political_financing_links","arguments":{}}}'

What comes back

Every answer is the same envelope, over REST and over MCP: available, data, citations, freshness and notes. See Citations and freshness.
