Conservative MP James Bezan apologizes for ‘threesome’ quip
OTTAWA—Conservative MP James Bezan quipped about a “threesome” during a spring photo op with a Liberal MP and another individual, a remark he conceded Monday was “flippant and inappropriate.”
Liberal MP Sherry Romanado surprised the Commons Monday afternoon when she accused Bezan of making comments about her that were “inappropriate, humiliating” and “sexual in nature.”
“These comments have caused me great stress, and have negatively affected my work environment,” Romanado (Longueuil — Charles-LeMoyne) said.
Her statement came mere hours after Bezan himself had stood in the Commons to offer apologies for an “inappropriate and insensitive comment.”
“I have nothing but the greatest respect for this member, for this institution, and I sincerely apologize,” he said.
It was only later in the day, after Romanado’s statement, that Bezan provided more details about the incident that apparently was behind the Commons’ statements.
