update:

for folks expressing frustration..

The Elections Canada angle is probably the wrong one unless this happened during an election. The House of Commons rules on parliamentary resources are what matter.
MPs cannot use taxpayer-funded resources for partisan activities. The Conservative convention and Restore the North are not parliamentary business. If a trip included both, taxpayers should only cover the parliamentary portion. The rest should be paid by the party, riding association, or MP.
That’s why Jivani’s Calgary trip raises questions. His taxpayer-funded travel overlapped with both the Conservative convention and the launch of Restore the North. How were the parliamentary and partisan portions separated, and who paid for each?
Aaron Gunn’s March expenses deserve the same scrutiny. None of the Restore the North stops were in his riding, yet taxpayers paid for travel that overlapped with the tour. If any of that travel was connected to partisan events, who paid for it? what were the promotional materials?
