Sam Blackett, a press secretary for Smith, said in a statement that the premier also did not read the person’s shirt, “and obviously doesn’t agree with its message.” Blackett added Smith has “always been clear” that she supports those in the LGBTQ community.
“There’s a lot of young kids who are struggling with their identity and their sexuality who need the adults to be supportive of them as they work their way through that journey,” she told the crowd of about 250 people, a few of whom groaned when the question was asked.
“We have to depoliticize these issues. These issues are very personal family issues and every family has a loved one that they support, every single one of us have family members who are struggling with gender identity or coming to terms with their sexuality and we need to give 100 per cent support to them and we need to depoliticize this.”
