Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau had to apologize for throwing a party on the island
Canada and India
currently have strained relations. There are some reasons behind
this. In all this, Justin Trudeau i.e. Prime Minister of Canada is now
playing the aggressive role. Trudeau is always in the media around the
world. But today we are going to know about one such exploit of his which
is called Aga Khan Scandal. After being caught in this scandal, Justin
Trudeau had to explain. (Canada PM)
Actually this story is
from 2016. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau took his family to a
private island in the Bahamas for a vacation. A woman MP from Canada O
Regan also came there with her husband. Apart from this, Trudeau's Liberal
Party President Anna Geni Sudha came with her husband. As soon as Trudeau
returned, some questions were asked in attendance. Opponents began to
allege that PM Trudeau had taken personal benefits from the famous businessman
Aga Khan during the trip. On investigation, these allegations were found
to be true. Realizing he was mistaken, Trudeau said he had family ties to
the Aga Khan, the funder. But Canada's Ethics Commissioner Mary Dawson
deemed it a breach of ethics.
The most controversial
aspect of Trudeau's trip to the private island was that a private helicopter
was arranged for him. This helicopter belonged to the famous businessman
Aga Khan. After being tricked, Trudeau admitted his mistake and defended
it by saying that they were his family friends. He promised that he would
not do this again.
In fact, Canada has
strict laws regarding corruption. According to the law, any government
minister, parliamentary secretary or any member of their family wants or needs
to travel by commercial chartered or private aircraft for their private event,
but they have to get approval from the ethics commissioner first. (Canada
