Senator Moreau, your late-September Senate ethics disclosure states that you were a managing partner of your law firm, Bélanger Sauvé. This law firm’s website continues to feature you in this position.

Prime Minister Carney named you as Senate government leader in mid-July, yet there have been no updates on the Senate Ethics Officer’s website stating that you have stepped back from your significant role managing your law firm to devote yourself full-time to your new Senate role. In fact, a recent announcement on Bélanger Sauvé’s website proudly proclaims, “Pierre Moreau, Managing Partner and member of Bélanger Sauvé’s Executive Committee is pleased to announce the appointment of . . .” — an employee who joined the firm — “. . . on September 8, 2025.”

Senator Moreau, you have been the Leader of the Government in the Senate for months now. When will you step back from your law firm position and commit to your Senate leader role as a full-time priority?

Senators can have other income while sitting as senators, but the Senate government leader position is a special role with major influence. You’re sworn into Privy Council and attend cabinet committee meetings, and could have done so since July, yet your Senate ethics disclosure hasn’t been posted yet and the information you provided hasn’t been put on the Senate Ethics Officer’s website. As far as we knew, you continued to manage and derive income from a 27-member law firm.

When will you adhere to the Senate Rules — our ethics code — and prioritize parliamentary functions over any other duty?
