Notes:

* Party did not nominate candidates in the previous election.

1 J. Hinchliffe was nominated by the North Vancouver Conservative Association but when he disagreed with the party's road policy, he was repudiated by the party leader, R.L. Maitland. A group called the Conservative Active Club nominated A. H. Bayne who was approved by Maitland. Bayne, however, could not run as a Conservative since Hinchliffe's nomination papers had been filed. Consequently, Hinchliffe's votes are included in the Conservative Party total and Bayne, who ran as an "Official Conservative", is listed separately.
