Conservative MP Michael Barrett says what he calls the “status quo” is not working when it comes to the rules that govern gifts to public office holders.

Mr. Barrett, his party’s ethics critic, says Opposition MPs plan to revisit those rules after weeks of raising concerns about Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Christmas vacation to Jamaica.
