Well, Mr. Mulcair, that's only so if you ignore the rule that existed before that date, which you seem to be intent on doing.
So let me ask you from the standpoint of a non-lawyer, an ordinary Canadian, do you really not perceive the ethical difficulties with sending House of Commons staff to work in an office that is leased by, run by, labelled by a partisan political office? Do you not understand the ethical issue that this rule 4.1 that was in existence in 2011 was designed to prevent?
