It’s always been the practice in Britain, who you inherited your Parliamentary system from. It’s done via secret ballots and usually such that attracts cross-party support. The Speaker usually keeps their position until they resign, but Parliament will always ensure a nominated Speaker exists prior to an election. During the term of a Speaker they hold no party and by convention, no major party will contest them in their constituency. And for context, Sir Lindsay Hoyle was from Labour. And the UK has had a large Conservative majority in this current Parliament. All they do is re-elect him as their first point of business, usually uncontested.

Mr. Fergus is so politically biased than he can’t even realize he has breached his own Code of conduct. Being impartial AND BE SEEN AS impartial is a must in his House Speaker’s role. Letting this go will only fuel the political cynicism among Canadians.

Resign!

The speaker should not and must not be member of any political party

Last speaker apologized and left .It should be no different for this one

Scheer when he was Speaker of the House protected Harper daily Harper refused to answer a question Scheer said it is question period not answer period

Cry , apologize , carry on , the Liberal way . None of them have resigned no matter how bad it is .

Right off the bat, when the new Speaker was brought in, I notice an arrogance and a partisan attitude about him. He has proven to be horrible at this job and Has To Go ! This position is too important to flub...

His behavior from the very beginning has been partisan and childish.

Andrew Scheer was the first one out there on Wellington Street grinning and shucking corn with the Freedom squatters in Ottawa. Mr Fergus didn’t cross the line.

How dare this "speaker" routinely MUTE the microphones and prevent TAXPAYERS who are paying the salaries of these MPs !! Worst speaker in years. The "impartiality rules" being broken are just another blight.

Prairie separation is the only solution with Canadian politics. This way, the Canadians can support whoever they want and it will not affect anyone else.

In the great scheme of things, I don't think he should lose his job over this. It was a farewell message. Wishing someone good luck in their next chapter whatever that is. Some better judgement sure but he has only been on the job for 2 months after all. Even Scheer doesn't seem to be all that motivated to see him gone. It was a very, very tame, "he should resign" speech. Not at all the usual fare you get from the Conservatives.

We need a referee for the referee seems like if the opposition has to constantly tell them what their job expectations are. Poilievre scolded him about time being misused during question period and the last one kicked a member of the opposition out of the house for speaking her mind not to mention not screening for Nazis inviting one to be celebrated as a Ukranian hero.
