Furey: On Wednesday, Liberal MPs used their majority on the ethics committee to vote down opposition attempts to have Ethics Commissioner Mario Dion testify.
There’s also something troubling about shutting down the testimony of an independent non-partisan officer of Parliament after he’s tabled a major report. It could be argued, from the PMO’s perspective, that Wilson-Raybould, by the time of her testimony, was something of a political adversary looking to damage the PM.
With Dion, this is just someone doing their job. To shut him down is to thumb your nose at the entire system.
