North Island-Powell River MP Rachel Blaney is questioning the Liberal government’s moral compass.

This comes after Federal Ethics Commissioner Mary Dawson ruled Prime Minister Justin Trudeau broke conflict of interest rules with his Christmas vacation to the Bahamas. The vacation was taken last year on the private island of the Aga Khan.

Blaney says it’s important for our country’s elected officials to be held to a high standard:

Along with Finance Minister Bill Morneau that makes two of the highest ranking officials in the Liberal government that have run afoul of the Ethics Commissioner. Blaney says that’s a problem:

Trudeau has apologized for his breach of ethics, something Blaney says isn’t good enough.
