Do you remember Fraser?

Ed Byrne and all MHA's Remember This Motion?

THE HONOURABLE THE GOVERNMENT HOUSE LEADER
-- To Move:

"WHEREAS, in accordance with section 3 of the Citizens' Representative Act, the Lieutenant-Governor in Council, on a Resolution of this House of Assembly, by Order in Council dated December 14, 2001, appointed Fraser March to the Office of Citizens' Representative;

AND WHEREAS the Citizens' Representative, Fraser March, has, in accordance with subsection 7(1) of the Citizens' Representative Act been suspended as the Citizens' Representative;

AND WHEREAS section 6 of the Citizens' Representative Act provides that the Lieutenant-Governor in Council may, on a Resolution of this House of Assembly, for cause remove the Citizens' Representative from office;

AND WHEREAS there is cause to remove Fraser March from the Office of Citizens' Representative;

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by this House of Assembly that Fraser March be removed from the Office of Citizens' Representative." (emphasis added)

1. The Government House Leader was Ed Byrne

2. This action was as a result of an Auditor General's Report on travel and other claims.

3. The amounts referred to were significantly less than the amounts referred to by the same Auditor General in Reports respecting Ed Byrne - Wally Anderson - and Randy Collins.

4. What's the difference? Oh yeah - the difference is they would have to boot out their own!

5. The HOA required nothing more than the AG findings to fire him - through a motion and vote in the House of Assembly.
