Christy Clark: Prime Minister Stephen Harper

Prime Minister Stephen Harper: Invitations to the press conference, which was called to discuss the Lunar New Year, had been distributed to a select list of journalists working on local, non-English outlets. The move came just weeks after Prime Minister Stephen Harper's own heavily curated and criticized press conference for hand-picked ethnic media took place on his visit to B.C, according to Huffington Post. "Premier Clark's 2 p.m. presser at the Vancouver office today," he posted to the Vancouver Press Club group on Facebook. "If your outlet is up for going en masse to possibly be denied access let me know, if we get enough people we'll do it." In the latest attempt to control press access to Canadian politicians, B.C. Premier Christy Clark found herself the subject of a full-on revolt in Vancouver, when a press conference for only ethnic media was gatecrashed by reporters for English-only publications. When news of Clark's invitation-only event leaked out Thursday, Jeremy Nuttall, a reporter for 24 Hours Vancouver, and the journalist who broke the Harper story, took to social media to rally support.
