After a dramatic week in Canadian politics that resulted in Prime Minister Stephan Harper losing two senators from his caucus and the resignation of his chief of staff, many wonder how the political shrapnel from this latest scandal will affect the Conservative government.
Prime Minister Stephen Harper forced Sen. Pamela Wallin out of the Conservative caucus after learning the preliminary findings of an audit looking into her travel expenses, a source has told CTV News.
Conservative Sen. Pamela Wallin paid back a “substantial” amount of money she claimed in expenses before meeting with auditors to discuss her travel spending, CTV News has learned.
Opposition MPs hammered the government Wednesday after CTV News reported that Sen. Pamela Wallin is being audited for hundreds of thousands of dollars in travel expenses over the past three years.
