Security guards reportedly yanked a parliamentary page from the Senate chamber in the midst of the throne speech after she began an anti-government protest.  “A page that we all know entered the Senate Chamber and held a sign stating ‘stop harper’” senator Mobina Jaffer wrote on her Twitter account as parliamentarians gathered to hear Governor General David Johnson read the Conservative government’s Speech from the Throne.
