Speaker of the House of Commons Resigns

-- Virtual Pensacola

The Acting Governor-General has reveled that the Speaker of the House of Commons, the Right Honourable Robert Frank, PC, has resigned effective immediately from his position as Speaker of the House of Commons.

"The Speaker citing conflicts between his Duties as Speaker and his Obligations to his employer has elected to resign his position."

"I regret that the Speaker found himself in this position, but I support the former Speaker's choice at this time. We all have to recognize that we have obligations in the 'real world' that may from time to time interfere with our ability to serve God and Queen in the Dominion of British West Florida"

"I hope that Mr. Frank will be able to rejoin us and our efforts in the future, and wish him Godspeed until then."
