.@BCLegSpeaker Darryl Plecas just wrapped up a 20 minute scrum in Abbotsford. This is the first time he has commented publicly since the release of his explosive report. #bcpoli
Plecas says he knew on his first day as speaker that something wasn't right at the Legislature in terms of expenses.
Plecas says he feels vindicated and the attacks on his were terrible for himself and his family. #bcpoli
Plecas says he will be vindicated when the staff who were allegedly fired from the Legislature feel that their wrongs have been righted "I want to see justice for those people" #bcpoli
Plecas says the impact on taxpayers has been important, "I want to get to the place where we get our money back" #bcpoli
Plecas says "we are the people's house, we are there on behalf of the people, they should have access to the information" #bcpoli
Plecas says Linda Reid started down the same path as him early on, but veered off because of 'leadership' issues. "This is a very complicated situation," Plecas says. #bcpoli
Plecas says we wouldn't be where we are right now if he raised the alarm bell immediately, that is why he kept signing off on the expenses he believed were improper. #bcpoli
