The Senate ethics watchdog is looking into new allegations that Senator Colin Kenny used parliamentary resources for personal business following an investigation by Radio-Canada. The CBC's French-language service obtained emails dating as far back as 2005 indicating the senator had staff from his office organizing renovations to his home and taking care of business at a tanning salon he once owned. This is not the first time Kenny has come under scrutiny over accusations he used staff members to attend to personal business. Former employee, Pascale Brisson, filed a compliant about Kenny in October 2013. She alleged she spent roughly half her time at the office taking care of the senator's personal affairs.
