Talk:Speaker of the House of Commons (Canada)

message: Is there any precedent to suggest how the Speaker of the House of Commons would vote on third reading of a bill, such as C-48 as passed at second reading by the Hon. Peter Milliken?  Would he pass such a bill, so that there could be "further debate" in the Senate? FiveParadox 04:41, 4 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The usual practice if the Speaker has to vote on third reading of a bill is for him to vote against it. This maintains status quo, and allows for the bill to be reintroduced at a later date. There's no precedent, however, with regards to third reading of something considered a matter of confidence. It's hard to say what action the Speaker would take. Usual practice is to maintain the status quo, but is throwing the country into an election maintaining the status quo? :) --142.242.2.248 13:49, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: s. 44 of the Constitution Act, 1867 states: "The House of Commons on its first assembling after a General Election shall proceed with all practicable Speed to elect One of its Members to be Speaker."  s.53 of the Parliament of Canada Act states "On a dissolution of Parliament, every member of the Board and the Speaker and Deputy Speaker shall be deemed to remain in office as such, as if there had been no dissolution, until their replacement."PoliSciMaster (talk) 14:05, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  End of term 

message: Reference here to Speaker of former Province of Canada as preceding without reference to the speakers of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick is misleading as it suggests that the House of Commons was the successor to the Assembly of the Province of Canada.
