Reformers had better listen up. At this rate, their beloved Parliament is threatened to disappear. There are also Liberal members involved, who, like the members for Timiskaming—Cochrane and Pickering—Ajax—Uxbridge, simply said “We will challenge the Speaker”.
Never will the Speaker of the House of Commons or the Speaker of a Parliament accept that members of Parliament, whose right to speak he is in charge of protecting, tell him through the papers to do as they please or face the consequences. That is a threat.
