A looming standoff over who will be Speaker of the New Brunswick legislature could bring it all to a screeching halt. In fact, it could plunge the province into a new election campaign this fall. "He's going to have to try to put up a Speaker," Gallant said of Higgs this week. Liberal Leader Brian Gallant and PC Leader Blaine Higgs say they don't want any of their members to become Speaker. The other party, the People's Party, was sworn in, but the house still couldn't find a Speaker.
