OTTAWA: A federal judge has ordered Canada's lobbying commissioner to reconsider a probe into whether the Aga Khan broke the rules by inviting Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's family to vacation on his private island at a time when his foundation was registered to lobby Trudeau's office.

In a recently released ruling, Federal Court Justice Patrick Gleeson agreed that Shepherd's scope was too narrow, quashing her decision not to probe the issue further. But he declined to order Canada's new lobbying commissioner, Nancy Bélanger, to launch a formal investigation, instead returning the matter to her for reconsideration.
