British Columbia: Speaker Darryl Plecas was the focus last week during a raucous meeting at the legislature where he clashed with MLAs over his role in the suspension of the building’s two highest-ranking employees.
The independent MLA for Abbotsford South went all-in with his career, pledging through several tirades he would soon reveal “serious concerns,” promising forensic audits into the building’s main offices and most memorably saying: “If the outcome of those audits did not outrage the public, did not outrage taxpayers, did not make them throw up, I will resign as Speaker.”
But there were other interesting observations gleaned from sitting in the overflowing public gallery of the Douglas fir committee room for the meeting.
