Quebec’s ethics commissioner recommends an $8,000 fine against former Liberal member of the National Assembly Sona Lakhoyan Olivier over alleged violations of campaign rules. According to the commissioner’s findings, the former MNA is accused of breaching the ethics code during the Quebec Liberal Party leadership campaign.

One of the specific issues cited is the alleged use of Chomedey riding offices for partisan purposes during the campaign. Both outlets report that the commissioner’s recommendation is focused on conduct tied to campaign activities and does not describe broader penalties beyond the proposed fine.

The reporting indicates the matter is at the stage of an ethics commissioner recommendation, with the fine being proposed rather than automatically imposed. The outcomes of any formal steps following the recommendation are not detailed in the available summaries.
