Parliamentary Secretary: Prime Minister Stephen Harper

Prime Minister Stephen Harper: British Columbia Tory MP Kerry-Lynne Findlay wrote to Public Works Minister Rona Ambrose last year encouraging her to get her department to enter into talks to renew its lease on a building owned by a constituent, according to CTV. She signed her letter as both the member of Parliament for Delta-Richmond East and as parliamentary secretary and OTTAWA -- One of Prime Minister Stephen Harper's parliamentary secretaries looks to have run afoul of conflict-of-interest rules by lobbying on behalf of a man in her riding. Findlay was the parliamentary secretary to the minister of justice at the time she wrote the letter. She has since been promoted to associate minister of national defence, where she is responsible for military procurement. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
