The age of consent in Canada is 16. It's between 16 and 18 in the US, depending on the state.
There was an investigation, but he did nothing illegal. Just immoral, and lied about it.
Which should be enough to get the asshole shit canned. It would just be nicer if he took himself out after issuing an apology for the harm he has caused.
But, since the Senate is looking at throwing this guy out must mean they're throwing him out based on the fact he lied about his actions because apparently he did nothing illegal. So, how can some people on the left scream about his removal while defending the Minister of National Defense claiming he did nothing illegal and just made a mistake?
It seems it's all about perspective. Neither of these morally bankrupt people did anything illegal but both of them lied which means that someones partisan sense of what's morally acceptable means that only one of them did something reprehensible enough to be removed from office.
Talk about a double standard.
Both these people should be standing in the unemployment lines looking for their next job so they can pay back the people they defrauded into thinking they were working for their well being.
