While campaigning, Premier Clark was approached by a member of the public, Linda Higgins,  (who by chance was  shopping at the time) who wanted to take the opportunity to tell her why the BC Liberal party would not get her vote.

Ms. Higgins started to say..." I would never vote for you because of what …" but the Premier cut her off, turned her back, and walked away.

Despite this incident being recorded, Ms. Clark later presented an alternative word twist and stated..."She said she didn’t vote for me last time, she’s never voted B.C. Liberal and she never will and she’s not going to vote for me again. Perfect. That’s her right,” Clark said.

The BC Liberals spin machine then tried to falsely assert that Ms. Higgins was an NDP plant.

What Ms Higgins wanted to tell the Premier was:  "how the high cost of living has priced her adult kids out of the Vancouver housing market."

“They have good jobs, but they can’t afford a home,” 

Ms. Clark could have listened but chose not to.
