Subsequently, Mr. Mulroney filed a lawsuit against the member for West Nova. Once that had been done, another member of the ethics committee, the Conservative member for Dufferin—Caledon, in a point of order, asked the memb
er for West Nova to recuse himself because the member for Dufferin—Caledon stated that there was a private interest involved, and since the member for West Nova was being sued by Mr. Mulroney, the m
ember for West Nova should not have the ability to question Mr. Mulroney, should
not ...[+++]have the ability nor should he be a part of the committee that is conducting the investigations because it would be a conflict of interest.Cela fait, un autre membre du Comité de l’éthique, le député conservateur de Dufferin—Caledon, a invoqué le Règlement et demandé au député de Nova-Ouest de se récuser parce que, affirmait-il, il y avait un intérêt personnel en cause.
