Senators Patrick Brazeau: LeBreton is the government's leader in the Senate and has been dealing for months with the Senate expense scandal involving the housing and travel claims of Senators Patrick Brazeau, Mike Duffy, Mac Harb and Pam Wallin, according to CBC. But she's also vice-chair of an important cabinet committee and it's that position that makes her the number one minister who can fill in for Harper if the need arises. That's about to change and Senator Marjory LeBreton is in her final days as Canada's substitute prime minister because when Stephen Harper shuffles his cabinet, she'll be bumped out of that role. She announced last week that she is stepping down as Senate leader but didn't say when. The date is still to be determined. LeBreton intends to remain a senator; she is only quitting her job as the Conservatives' leader in the Senate.
