The Conservatives are calling on Liberal Party leadership candidate Mark Carney to preemptively submit his ethics disclosure before the conclusion of the leadership race.
Conservative MP and ethics critic Michael Barrett told reporters in Ottawa on Feb. 18 that it’s concerning that if elected Liberal leader, the former Bank of Canada governor could potentially trigger an election without having committed to completing the customary accountability practices, as he is not an elected MP nor a public office holder, and is therefore not subject to any federal ethics rules.
