I dunno about the insect but British Columbia provincial bird is Steller's Jay
While looking for jay's picture I researched about provincial insects. Turns out we don't have any with the exception for Quebec who adopted
White Admiral butterfly as their provincial insect
In fact, the only province or territory to adopt an official insect is Quebec. After a public vote held by the Montreal Insectarium in 1998, the White Admiral butterfly (Limenitis arthemis) was selected as the provincial insect, which was later ratified by the National Assembly of Quebec.
