Beyak Suspended Again

Controversial northwestern Ontario Senator Lynn Beyak won’t be getting a paycheck for the rest of this parliamentary session.

The Senate of Canada agreed to suspend Beyak for a second time this afternoon.

This after she refused to take the mandated anti-racism training the last time she was suspended from the senate.

Beyak did apologize on Tuesday for failing to take down offensive letters about the residential school system on her website.

A report from the Senate Ethics committee suggested she not receive any remuneration or reimbursement of expenses, including any living allowances and being denied access to Senate resources, including office space.
