Interesting choice: partisan attack dog as Speaker of the House. Should make for an interesting session!

I think you read that wrong Zip. (Thank God).
$1:
Prime Minister Stephen Harper has again called on John Baird to plug a hole in his cabinet, moving him Friday morning into the tricky post of Government House leader where his job will be to push through the government’s agenda in a testy minority Parliament.

I thought something was wrong.
That'd be bad strategy on Harper's part. After all, why would Harper let Milliken go back to voting for the Liberals, when his vote is eliminated as Speaker (except for tied votes)?
