In the May 2009 provincial election, Chandra Herbert was again challenged by Green Party candidate Drini Read, as well as BC Liberal candidate and gay rights advocate Laura McDiarmid. Chandra Herbert was again expected to win, which he ultimately did – receiving over 50 percent of the vote – but his party again formed the Official Opposition to a BC Liberal majority government. As the 39th Parliament began, party leader Carole James kept him as the critic of the Ministry of Tourism, Culture and the Arts. Chandra Herbert disapproved of the absorption of the industry-run Crown corporation Tourism BC into the ministry. According to Chandra Herbert, the government took over Tourism BC in retaliation for the organization speaking out against the introduction of the Harmonized Sales Tax and so the government could control messaging and gain exposure during the Vancouver Winter Olympics. He went on to criticize the council responsible for the transition of Tourism BC into the government as being dominated (eight of thirteen members) by BC Liberal financial donors. Chandra Herbert was also critical of the changes, which began in July 2009, and were partially reversed in March and September 2010, to the provincial grant system which distributed proceeds from gambling to non-profit groups involved in arts, culture, sports, and education. Chandra Herbert illustrated the impact of the changes, which included province-wide cuts to non-profit groups, by contrasting them with the cost overruns from both the construction of the Vancouver Convention Centre and the replacement of the BC Place stadium roof.
