OTTAWA — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau admitted Tuesday to a second vacation, in 2014, while he was a member of Parliament, on the Bahamas island owned by billionaire philanthropist and family friend the Aga Khan.

In 2014, Trudeau was an everyday MP who happened to be the leader of the third party in the House of Commons and, as a result, would not have been subject to the same federal law — the Conflict of Interest Act — that governs some of his travel activity now that he is the prime minister.

Trudeau is under investigation by Parliament’s Conflict of Interest and Ethics Commissioner for potential violations of the act for his 2016 holiday as prime minister on Bell Island, the 141-hectare island owned by the Aga Khan in an archipelago described as the “Hampton of the Bahamas.”

No prime minister has ever been found by an authority, such as a judge or an officer of parliament, to have violated a federal law while in office.
