Former Speaker weighs in on current conundrum
KAMLOOPS — The uncertainty in Victoria right now centers on one person’s role: the Speaker of the Legislative Assembly.
Premier Christy Clark says a Speaker will come forward in time for the resumption of business in the legislature next Thursday.
However, it’s not known if that Speaker will resign after the expected fall of Clark’s minority government.
Former Kamloops MLA Claude Richmond served as the legislative Speaker for four years, from 2001 to 2005.
