Parliament has adjourned for the summer, which means a much-needed break for the man whose primary job is to make sure everyone behaves inside the House of Commons. Anthony Rota — the MP for Nipissing-Timiskaming, and the 37th Speaker of the House — joins Inside the Village for an in-depth conversation about what really happens during Question Period. He talks to Frisco and Scott about decorum, the pursuit of common ground, and how he juggles his role as both impartial referee and champion for his constituents. Does Rota plan to stand for re-election? We ask him that, too. Also on the podcast: a husband and wife are in custody after a shocking human trafficking investigation near Barrie.
