Premier blames “semantics” in CLBC bonus saga

Premier Christy Clark is blaming “semantics” for the controversy over pay raises given to executives at Community Living BC.

The government has been under fire after the raises were made public, since they equal bonuses that were supposedly eliminated last year.

But Clark told reporters today the bonuses were really salary hold-backs that were tied to incentives.

She says the incentives have been eliminated, and the hold-back amounts were simply rolled back into the executives’ salaries.

Clark says the base salaries have not changed and there were no raises.
