The prime minister pointedly made clear that he did not agree with everything that the ethics commissioner had to say about how his government handled the SNC-Lavalin affair. And he was right to do so, writes the Star editorial board.

I have been thinking alot about how Wilson-Raybould was gaslit, pressured, harassed and later defamed by the old boys crew at the PMO. As an employment lawyer, it is shocking how often I see this behaviour towards senior female execs.

It was really awful to watch this. I felt horrible for her. I think all women have been there. A man you don't know thinks it is ok to touch you and invade your personal space. You can really tell she is uncomfortable.

Why does this man gets away with this kind of behaviour?! It's 100% inappropriate, not tolerable. WHERE THE HELL IS THE MEDIA ON THIS?! #metoo #elxn43 #cdnpoli
