Jason Kenney Dept: And following the daily question period, Kenney sought to explain how the controversy now surrounding him unfolded last week, according to CBC. "As soon as I learned of that administrative mistake made in my office, my political staffer offered his resignation and I accepted it," Kenney said in the Commons Monday. "I contacted the ethics commissioner as a result, I apologized for that error, and we have taken corrective action." Immigration Minister Jason Kenney defended himself in the House of Commons Monday for the first time since opposition parties started calling for his resignation last week over a fundraising letter sent from his office. Kenney is the opposition's latest target because of a fundraising letter and media strategy outlining a plan to increase support among "very ethnic" voters in the Greater Toronto Area. The materials mistakenly ended up in the hands of NDP MP Linda Duncan on March 3, who shared them with the media. As
reported in the news.
