TRUDEAU DEFENDS NB JUDICIAL APPOINTMENTS

An advocacy group has filed a complaint with the federal conflict of interest and ethics commissioner calling for an independent investigation into Dominic LeBlanc and the connections he has with recent judicial appointments in New Brunswick.

Democracy Watch is also calling on the federal government to suspend all judicial and watchdog appointments until “the appointment process is changed to be actually independent and merit-based.
"We are fully confident that the process, the transparent, merit-based process that we've put in place is the right one and we stand by it," Trudeau said Thursday.
