Discuss the recent political developments in British Columbia, including Darryl Plecas becoming the new speaker and the Liberal party's reaction to it.
Darryl Plecas became the new speaker. This has no effect on votes since he can vote in the event of a tie. The Liberal party rudely, childishly and unfairly kicked him out of the Liberal party. He did nothing to harm them. Then a liberal MLA called the CBC BC Almanac program and lied that Plecas taking the speaker job helped prop up the NDP. By kicking him out of the party, the liberals can no longer count on his vote. That was really dumb.
