This will make it very interesting. There's no way the Liberals will nominate one of their own as Speaker so this scenario pretty much has to happen. Every vote will be a tie and the Speaker will need to vote on every issue. All it would take is one day for an NDP or Green MLA to miss a session and a surprise non confidence vote puts an end to the government. I bet BC goes to the polls again in the very near future.
