Dawson, who left her position as federal ethics and conflict-of-interest commissioner two days ago, said her report on that trip has renewed focus on the Conflict of Interest Act, which she feels could use some amending.
”I believe there is room for improvement,” said Dawson.
She also said she ”probably would have said no,” if Justin Trudeau had approached her about the trip ahead of time, if she had the same facts then as she had when writing the report.
