Canada’s ethics commissioner will not be investigating claims that Employment Minister Randy Boissonnault broke conflict of interest rules and a preliminary probe turned up no evidence the minister acted improperly, according to a letter obtained by CBC News.Employment Minister Randy Boissonnault speaks during a news conference on Tuesday, May 21, 2024 in Ottawa.
Boissonnault co-founded the PPE company GHI and currently holds shares in GHI through his holding company. Cabinet ministers are not allowed to engage in managing or operating a business or commercial activity. Boissonnault denied the allegations, telling the House of Commons in June that he has "had no role in this company since being elected in 2021.""That person is not me," he said.But the letter from the commissioner says that Boissonnault submitted call logs and texts from three of his personal devices for the day in question — September 8, 2022 — and the information provided supported Boissonault's statement that he did not have any correspondence with Anderson.
The letter also said that Boissonnault confirmed with the ethics commissioner that he stopped working with GHI when he was elected in 2021, and provided documentation indicating that his resignation as director was noted in the company's corporate minutes in October 2021.
