Canada's new house speaker elected, asks for "a little grace period"


Global News has the story.

Canadian members of Parliament elected Liberal MP Francis Scarpaleggia as the House of Commons Speaker as their first order of business following the return of Parliament Monday.
 
Scarpaleggia was dragged to the front of the House of Commons by Prime Minister Mark Carney and interim Opposition Leader Andrew Scheer as part of the tradition when a new Speaker is named.
 
Scarpaleggia was up against five other Liberal colleagues, after Conservative MPs John Nater and Chris d’Entremont, the latter who served as former deputy Speaker in the last Parliament, withdrew their names from consideration.
 
“I would remind members that we are at the beginning of a mandate in the selfish hope that you will afford me a little grace period,” Scarpaleggia, an MP from the Montreal area, said. “I have few words because well, we all have things we want to accomplish and we’ve been away.”

  1. The election of a new speaker of the House of Canada shows how vital neutrality and regaining trust in the debate in parliament can be. They had expectations of respect and procedure through their premature requests. Such discussions also serve as a reminder to the students who require Professional Westminster university assignment help UK assistance about how principles of governance in the real world influence the study of politics and active participation in civic affairs in the modern world.

  2. Παιδιά, πρέπει να σας πω για την τελευταία μου ανακάλυψη. Ένας φίλος μου έστειλε το leonbet όσο πίναμε καφέ στην Αθήνα και αποφάσισα να μπω από το κινητό. Η πλοήγηση είναι πολύ γρήγορη, κάτι που σπανίζει στην Ελλάδα. Διάλεξα να παίξω μερικούς γύρους σε ένα θεματικό παιχνίδι με αρχαίους θεούς και στάθηκα τυχερός. Η πληρωμή έγινε άμεσα και αυτό με έκανε να το εμπιστευτώ ακόμα περισσότερο για το μέλλον και τη διασκέδασή μου στις ελεύθερες ώρες.
