Re: MLA could stay on Pitt council (The News, May 24).

In this article you state that Doug Bing will meet with the “premier-elect.” There is no premier-elect. Christy Clark lost her seat. She is not the premier at this time, nor is she an MLA, nor does she have privileges in the legislature.

She won’t be the premier-elect until a by-election is held and she wins a seat and the Liberal party  keeps her as their leader. There are a lot of ifs.
