		Liberal MP Peter Milliken was acclaimed Speaker of the House of Commons on Monday, after all six other candidates withdrew from the ballot.
		Milliken, MP for Kingston and the Islands, was Speaker of the last parliament, and Deputy Speaker from 1994 to 2000.
		However, having the experienced Milliken in the Speaker's seat may be worth more to Paul Martin than being able to count on his single vote, because the Speaker is likely to be called on to rule on a slew of potentially crucial, procedural issues.

		Peter Milliken, Incumbent House of Commons Speaker, was re-elected into his role for a third time as Parliament opened on Monday, April 3.
		Hence, electing Milliken as Speaker allows the Conservatives to keep all their votes, and leaves the Official Opposition Liberals one less.
		Milliken knows well how much value a single vote can have, as last May 19, during his last stint as Speaker, he was forced to cast a tie-breaking ballot—one that temporarily saved the Liberal government during a vote of non-confidence.
