Deloitte Audit: Charlie Angus

Charlie Angus: At a news conference Friday, Charlie Angus also faced questions about why MPs don't have to submit to an audit of their travel and living expenses by the auditor general in the same way that senators now do, according to CBC. Angus pointed out a Deloitte audit released on Tuesday found that Senator Pamela Wallin spends more time in Toronto than in Saskatchewan, the province she was appointed to represent.

Angus has written a letter to Minister of State for Democratic Reform Pierre Poilievre asking him what action he intends to take to ensure senators adhere to residency rules.
