The Speaker does require non-partisanship, so how does it make sense for the NDP to reduce the Speaker's position to one of partisan pawn, accountable to the NDP whip like any other member. The Speaker will be breaking a tie with a clear partisan bias on every single vote in the legislature. And Horgan is even suggesting he'll change BC's constitution against 140 years of parliamentary tradition in a pathetic attempt to take power because he didn't get the mandate he wanted from voters - this happens in Venezuela, not Canada. Horgan is as shameless as he is smug in tweeting that BC voters finally have the government they voted for when Horgan received less support than the Liberals. The NDP is joining forces with a group of radical career activists who protest economic development for a living. The last time the NDP was in power, they were rewarded with two seats for their efforts and nothing has changed, the NDP represents a pro-union anti-business clown show.
