Calls For An Investigation To Find Out Who Leaked The Naked MP Pic Say It Was A Cruel Act

After a Canadian MP's naked picture was captured in a video meeting mishap, there are calls for an investigation to find out who shared the photo with the public. 

A statement from Mark Holland, the chief government whip, who is responsible for ensuring the Liberal party members are attending and up to date on the business of the House of Commons, called for cooperation in an investigation being undertaken by the Speaker's Office.

Holland said that he has heard "compelling cases" from both the Bloc and the NDP that the breach didn't come from their parties and also said he hopes the media outlets that shared the image will cooperate. 

The statement also called the dissemination of the picture a "cruel, mean-spirited, and potentially criminal act." 

Will Amos, the Liberal MP who is in the photo, also shared the statement and called for an investigation into the leak, saying "it is most unfortunate that someone shared, without my consent, a photo in which I was changing my clothes. This photo came from a video feed that only MPs or a very small number of staff had access to. No person deserves to suffer such harm."
