Canadian politicians renew calls for House Speaker Fergus to resign
The Conservatives and Bloc Québécois are calling for House of Commons Speaker Greg Fergus to resign.
He was elected as a Liberal MP, but is supposed to be neutral in his current role. The resignation calls mean Fergus could soon face his second non-confidence vote, despite being on the job for just seven months.
David Akin explains what Fergus is being accused of and how the Liberals and NDP are reacting.

Why is the speaker allowed to have any political affiliation? Shouldn’t he be like a judge, impartial ?

YES!! He mutes the mic, he edits transcripts, and is completely partisan to the liberals. This "man" should be removed from politics!
There is no room for a bias Liberal speaker, Canadian democracy is already on a decline from this Liberal/NDP gov.
He should of been fired 6 months ago
He must go!
Just more corruption
Apologies are just not enough !
Greg Fergus needs to step down, but having integrity is not a Liberal trait.
First speaker in history to eject an opposition leader, if that doesn’t scream modern Liberal bias in Canadian politics once again, I have no clue what does

That would also mean PeePee is the first opposition leader in history to be ejected. If that doesn't scream misbehaviour, or more probably simply grandstanding on PeePee's part, I have no clue what does.
I agree he needs to resign
Fergus just step down.
Scandal after scandal! Just like Trudeau!
The speaker of the house being a liberal mp is a laughably flagrant conflict of interest even a child could identify. Why is the Canadian political system such a joke?
the speaker should leave the country
A puppet on a string who thinks he's special......🥴
Speakers job IS TO BE IMPARTIAL! Fergus has demonstrated that it is impossible for him to do so. Speaker is the face of Parliament and Fergus is reflecting on the Liberals in a very negative way. Shame on him and the Liberal/ndp. There has been 4 times of extreme partisan behaviour and 2 of contempt of parliament. We have a dictatorship forming.
My question is; Even if Furgus is removed, who is competent enough to replace him.? How about Jodie Wilson Reabould?She would be the most qualified person I can think of.

I hope most Canadians understand how serious this situation is. Fergus is not capable of doing his job. He’s become arrogant enough to risk speaking for the Liberals yet again. Too many mistakes by this man. He works for JT.
The NDP complain but, as usual, continue to support the Liberals.
Sorry,Sorry,Sorry,Sorry,Sorry,Sorry,Sorry say’s every Liberal. 🤡
Makes the entire system even more farcical. End the drama class and get to work.
a Dark time of Canada good luck my fellows Canadians.
Speaker is such a straight forward role, but its extra slimy and snake-like that the Liberals try to weaponize it
Freeland just called Pierre a phone through and through and Fergus didn't even comment. How is that different than using the term whacko?
A secret agent of the liberals, very bad at masquerading as an independent.😂😂
With 3 documented strikes of partisanship, he must do the honorable thing, man up, and resign....
Definitely needs to resign now
This speaker NEEDS to go……………
And those are just examples of partiality. What about his manipulation of the blues? That is actual criminality. The longer he is permitted to skirt the rules the more aggresive he will become at doing so.
I think it's extremely wrong that the speaker is of the same house as the PM. Should be that the speaker is of the opposition
Lets keep talking about it and do nothing - that will stress people out. THE AGENDA

Wow, first Speaker to eject an Opposition Leader?!? That is saying a lot, especially when Poilievre did withdraw the comment.
Why are we not having the senate explain the cause and impact of the bills, acts approved through parliamentary building? instead of this political bureaucracy? This is what represents Canada? Majority of Canadians don't understand the cause and impact of the approved bills going through the senate, yet we never video there and explain it. The News, Global News including all others also has no idea of it either, yet they are the ones explaining it. So where is the voice of Our senate? to bring us together as a Country? To unite us after Debate to explain to Canadians why passed the bills ? and what it will do to improve Canadians lives. This will end the protesting, all the miscommunication that is happening. ( which is our Canadians Right, to ask for the senate to explain it) I stand here as a Mensa Genius just shaking my head at all of you. Life is very simple, Lots love.
Clear bias, repeated examples, you've had your chance and botched it. Step down or be fired. Time for you to take your place with all the other Liberal retreads under the bus, where Trudeau throws Liberals that disagree with him.
Thw whole Trudick Lieberal party & anyone appointed by them needs to be shown the door.
He is a speaker for liberals and he should resign.

Yeah definitely affects their pocket books. Trudeau made millions since taking office while Canadians lost their life savings.
Bid red herring. The issue is not who published it. The issue is did he say it. If he said it, it shows his partisanship. The publishing of the statement just shows the stupidity and incompetence of the Liberals.
NDP needs a backbone. They are run by spineless leader and they are so far away from what they were standing for to now a joke party that no one wants to support.

Fergus is so corrupted that he must go.

Why is Trudeau still in power and above the law? “climate change “ to Trudeau means more limo gas waists, more jet trips to his vacations and more carbon taxes for you and me. Every time I get my monthly check, he snatches most of it away.
