Dryden’s Lynn Beyak is back in the Senate.
She was suspended by her colleagues in May for the remainder of the Parliamentary session.
Earlier this year the Senate Ethics Officer ruled she breached two sections of the Senate Code of Ethics when she posted letters to her Senate website which were deemed racist by two fellow members who complained about them.
One of those letters called into question whether Indian Residential Schools were harmful.
After an inquiry, which lasted much of 2018 and into this year, the ethics office concluded Senator Beyak did not uphold the highest standards of her position.
The suspension was only in effect until the new government was elected in October.
She has no party affiliation in the red chamber since the Conservative Party removed her from caucus last fall.
