Update: 7:42AM, April 10

I would like to commend Kash Heed for stepping down immediately and showing respect for Parliamentary tradition. I am sure that both he and the citizens of British Columbia hope that this matter is resolved in a more timely fashion than his predecessor once removed John Les' case or the mysterious matter of the Legislature Raids.

On another note, Lord Gord has announced he won't be asking for the resignation of Jane T, his caucus member facing DUI charges. This should come as no surprise, HOW COULD HE?
