But that was only one of Trudeau's many ethical breaches. Including accepting vacations paid for by the Aga Khan. Trudeau has made it pretty clear that he's into quid pro quo if he thinks he can get away with it.
My view of Trudeau is that he believes his press clippings, thinks he's political royalty and stuff like that vacation is part of the package. So to me it's not quite corruption, but certainly not something to ignore or that can't justify rejecting his party.

I'm being overly picky about semantics here though. At the end of the day, that stuff is of lesser importance to me than legislation, policies, etc. And if his minority looks to be falling apart, I could see him stepping down - it's happened before.
