The Prime Minister’s Office is denying allegations it misled the ethics commissioner, after the federal Conservatives called for an investigation into Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s vacation in Jamaica.

The Conservatives want the conflict of interest and ethics commissioner to look into how PMO staff handled the detail that Mr. Trudeau stayed for free.
