In the aftermath of Ethics Commissioner Mario Dion香蕉视频直播檚 findings that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau violated conflict of interest laws during the SNC-Lavalin criminal prosecution, Kelowna-Lake Country香蕉视频直播檚 Liberal MP and Conservative candidate weighed in with their reactions this week.

Tracy Gray, the Kelowna-Lake Country Conservative Party candidate, echoed a nearly identical statement that Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer published early today.

香蕉视频直播淎nd as we get ready for this next election, the choice before Canadians has never been more clear. Between a prime minister who abuses his power, bends the law for his friends, and destroys his critics. And a prime minister who will uphold the rule of law, respect our democratic institutions, and help all Canadians get ahead,香蕉视频直播 stated Gray in an email to the Capital News.

For his part, Scheer issued the following statement: 香蕉视频直播淎nd on the eve of this election, the choice before Canadians has never been more clear. Between a prime minister who abuses his power, bends the law for his friends, attempts to silence his critics and destroys their reputations. And a Conservative government led by a prime minister who will uphold the rule of law, respect our democratic institutions, and help all Canadians get ahead.香蕉视频直播

While Stephen Fuhr, the Liberal MP for Kelowna-Lake Country, acknowledged this week that Trudeau香蕉视频直播檚 reputation with voters may hurt his campaign, he continues to stand by the prime minister香蕉视频直播檚 side.

Justin Kulik, the NDP candidate for Kelowna-Lake Country, said we all expect our governments to work for us.

香蕉视频直播淏ut instead, the Liberals continue to serve their own interests and the interests of the rich and powerful,香蕉视频直播 Kulik said.

香蕉视频直播淣ew Democrats will always put people ahead of corporations, period.香蕉视频直播

香蕉视频直播淭he blue and red line has shown to me that corporate interests will always trump those of the peoples,香蕉视频直播 said Green Party candidate Travis Ashley. 香蕉视频直播淐anadians need and deserve accountability and transparency. Thank goodness for the Green Party.香蕉视频直播
