Wall says it’s inappropriate for an elected official to accept a fee to talk at such an event, so Trudeau should pay back the money.
The premier first made the comments in an interview with Global TV.
Wall says he noted in the interview that the speech came just before Trudeau decided to run for the Liberal leadership.
