The Family Coalition Party of British Columbia was a social conservative, anti-abortion provincial political party in British Columbia, Canada.
In the 1991 election, it nominated eight candidates in the province's 75 ridings. They won a total of 1,310 votes, or 0.09% of the provincial total. In the 1996 election, it nominated 14 candidates in the province's 75 ridings. They won a total of 4,150 votes, or 0.26% of the provincial total. None of its candidates was ever elected to the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia.
