It doesn't get much simpler than that.
So, we've established what the law in BC is, but in Alberta it's still a gray area.

Still that law opens itself up to lots of grey areas. If I want to turn left, all I need to do is to proceed a little bit to take the right of way away from the driver going straight. I suppose that's how it works. If we proceed at the same time, the left turner has to wait for the straight goer. That's not really different that what either side has been saying, I don't think.

IMO, it's clear from that section (for BC anyway) that whoever proceeds from the intersection first has the right of way. So, pretty much how it works out in reality.
