Opposition parties are asking the federal ethics watchdog to widen his probe of Bill Morneau regarding the WE organization as the finance minister continues to face calls for his resignation.

Conservatives and New Democrats have written to Ethics Commissioner Mario Dion to probe trips Morneau took three years ago, part of which were paid for by the WE organization.
