The 1941 British Columbia general election was the twentieth general election in the Province of British Columbia, Canada. It was held to elect members of the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia. The election was called on September 9, 1941, and held on October 21, 1941.
No party took a majority of votes, and no party took a majority of seats. After the election, Conservative and Liberal members voted to form a Coalition government. Liberal Party leader Thomas Dufferin Pattullo objected, stepped down as leader and sat as a Liberal separate from the Coalition. This reduced the Coalition caucus to thirty two MLAs.
