After Premier Christy Clark claimed her comments that the culture in Victoria is “sick” were taken out of context, the National Post reporter who published them — is defending his story.
Clark says Brian Hutchinson knew what she meant and he wanted to portray it differently.
Hutchinson calls Clark’s comments “baffling”.
He says the story ran full-comment online, titled “BC Premier avoids sick culture in legislature”.
“So, it’s completely in context. We’re talking about and clearly, we understood, I always understood that she was talking about a sick culture in the context of the legislative assembly and that’s exactly how the story was framed.”
Yesterday, Clark defended her comments by saying she was talking about the “Legislature” when she said Victoria, not the city or the people within it.
