‘There’s no place for the state in the bedrooms of the nation’

That phrase by Pierre Trudeau came in reference to a different offence (homosexual act) that was once outlawed, but it seems to apply to this situation as well.  There was no criminal activity.  (He wasn't charged.)  There appears to have been an abuse of power or authority for which he has apologized.  This teasing tidbit pales in my mind when compared to Senator Duffy's abuse of per diems among other things.
