Press Pass: MLA has gall(stone) to exit question period
BLACKHAWK DOWN -It's not uncommon for MLAs to get clammy and nauseous during the pressure-cooker that is question period. But when Iain Black (Port Moody-Coquitlam) felt sharp pain in his chest Tuesday, he knew it wasn't nerves. Black, white as a ghost, turned to colleague Murray Coell (Saanich North and the Islands) and warned him he might fall out of his chair. Coell helped him out of the chamber (a headturning event because MLAs aren't supposed to leave during question period) and called for help from two doctorsturnedMLAs, Moira Stilwell and Margaret MacDiarmid.
