Klees won’t run for Speaker of the Legislature

MPP Frank Klees says he never expected the “firestorm” of criticism he received from his colleagues for saying he would run for the Speaker’s job. Mr. Klees might as well say he didn’t know the gun was loaded. His plan was a calculated punch in the gut to his party and it played into the hands of the Liberals. That may or may or not have been good for the province but for him to be surprised by what happened is somewhat disingenuous.
