It's on.

That's right, if all goes according to plan, Karlheinz Schreiber will be in Ottawa tomorrow and in front of the House of Commons ethics committee as of tomorrow morning.

A rare Speaker's warrant has been granted and issued and now Schreiber is not only allowed out of jail, but is compelled to testify.

Of course, Schreiber has set some conditions of his own. He'll come and talk, but only if he can wear a business suit (not an orange jumpsuit,) be without handcuffs and have access to some of his personal documents.

And as it turns out, this apperance may work in Schreiber's favour, at least in the short term. The Speaker's warrant asks Schreiber to appear before the committee tomorrow, into next week and for as long as the committee has questions for him about his dealings with former Prime Minister Brian Mulroney. In other words, Schreiber's extradition (slated for Saturday) may be delayed.

And if Justice Minister Rob Nicholson tries to extradite Schreiber anyway (as he seems inclined to do), Nicholson will be held in contempt of Parliament.

In this ever-changing story, one thing is certain: tomorrow is going to be interesting.
