Complaint by former Liberal party president against N.S. auditor general dismissed

NOVA SCOTIA, CANADA, JUL 14 – Chartered Professional Accountants Nova Scotia dismissed a complaint against Auditor General Kim Adair regarding her report on a $194,000 public fund misuse and concealment attempt.

  • A spokeswoman for the accountants' oversight body said on June 10 it dismissed the complaint lodged by Joseph Khoury against Auditor General Kim Adair.
  • Last year, Khoury lodged his complaint after Adair asked the RCMP to investigate, and her report showed the party tried to delay disclosure until after the 2021 election.
  • In December 2020, the theft emerged under Khoury's leadership when a party employee misused travel claims and a credit card, reimbursing more than $194,000.
  • Khoury said Adair's February 2024 report was incomplete and defamatory toward him and the Liberals.
  • First published July 14, 2025, this report comes amid an ongoing police investigation into the premier's riding association fund theft, the Nova Scotia premier said.
