OTTAWA — Conservatives are calling once more for Greg Fergus to resign as House of Commons Speaker, arguing that an advertisement for an event in his riding used “very partisan, inflammatory language” concerning Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre.

The Liberal Party of Canada recently advertised a “Summer Evening with the Honourable Greg Fergus” in Hull on June 4 as an “exciting opportunity to join fellow Liberals and talk about the ways we can continue to build a better future for all Canadians.”
