Politicians have been called back to the British Columbia legislature on June 22, setting the stage for a possible change in the provincial government.

Premier Christy Clark has said she expects to lose a confidence vote in the house after the New Democrats and Greens reached an agreement to allow the NDP to form a minority government.

No party won a majority of seats in a provincial election last month.

Green Leader Andrew Weaver welcomed the decision to recall the house.

``In the weeks since the election, it has been encouraging to see all three parties agree that British 

Columbians want us to work together.''
