Green Party Leader Elizabeth May says she would like to run for the position of Speaker of the House during the next Parliament, and that she is open to a position in Prime Minister Mark Carney’s cabinet.
“I’ve left my name in the lineup in the Speaker’s elections quite a few times without campaigning to be Speaker,” she said during an interview with CTV News on April 30. “But I have concerns about how far the Canadian Parliament and the role of the Canadian Speaker have departed from our rules and our traditions.”
