People have been very patient and I want to thank them for that, but I\u2019m not at that point of deciding that yet,&#8221; said Clement, who continues to be the Member of Parliament for Parry Sound-Muskoka.<\/p>\n<div style=\"float: left; margin-right: 14px;\"><strong><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45658\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone><\/strong><\/div>\n<p>&#8220;I\u2019m very remorseful about what I did in my personal life. It was a personal issue. I know there was this talk about national security, but that\u2019s completely wrong. There was no national security issue with this. I was the one who reported it to the RCMP and the RCMP were on my side. They saw me as the victim and they were acting on behalf of me to seek the arrest of the blackmailers,&#8221; noted Clement.<\/p>\n<p>The embattled MP said he\u2019s been laying low while working on himself and his relationship with his family. Clement resigned from key parliamentary positions last November, following revelations that he was being blackmailed by two men he had been sexting with, believing them to be a woman. It was also learned that the incident was not an isolated one, but part of a pattern of inappropriate online behaviour that Clement had been engaging in. Those revelations led to Clement being asked to resign from the Conservative Party caucus.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I obviously had a severe personal crisis that culminated in the issue that had me resign from caucus. I very much regret that. I have a lot of remorse and I apologize for the behaviour that caused that,&#8221; said Clement, who has since spent most of his time working in the riding and only returned to Parliament to sit as an independent representative for Parry Sound-Muskoka last month.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I wasn\u2019t in Ottawa in November and December and January. I did my riding work out of my constituency office\u2014made sure my offices were open, attended local events, had meetings with small business leaders in the riding, had meetings with constituents who had issues in the riding\u2026 so I did that constituency work, but I also tended to my mental wellness,&#8221; said Clement.  He said the time to recover and seek counselling has served him well. &#8220;It really helped. It really put me on the right track. I\u2019ve turned away from the activity that caused so much trouble and so I feel good about that. I feel like I\u2019m the person I was before. The husband I was. The father I was\u2026&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Clement admitted to being \u201cquite anxious\u201d about returning to Parliament in February, not knowing what to expect and how people would react. \u201cI did want to get back to my office in Ottawa and I did want to be in Parliament because that\u2019s part of the job, too.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Clement said when he returned he found the majority of MPs and others to be &#8220;welcoming and forgiving.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They said basically what hundreds of people in Muskoka and Parry Sound had been saying to me in the interim, which is: &#8216;You made a mistake. You did something wrong but you owned up to it and we\u2019ve all made mistakes in our personal lives so you\u2019re no different from the rest of us and it\u2019s important that you move on.'&#8221; Clement said he was relieved to hear such messages both from constituents and colleagues on Parliament Hill. &#8220;That\u2019s what I had hoped, that people would give me some grace, give me some compassion and give me some empathy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>While Clement is still a card-carrying member of the Conservative Party of Canada, he said not being part of the party caucus has taken some getting used to.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It does give you a lot more freedom, there&#8217;s no question about it,&#8221; he said. &#8220;It&#8217;s a new thing for me obviously but yeah, I&#8217;m going to take advantage of it if there&#8217;s an issue that I think I can be more aligned with the public point of view [on]  in the riding that isn&#8217;t necessarily completely consistent with the Conservative position, then I&#8217;d take a look at that obviously. I don&#8217;t feel bound by a caucus that I&#8217;m not a part of, right? So in that sense, I do have that flexibility but it&#8217;s [on]  a case by case basis.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Clement said he not only feels as though he\u2019s back on track but said his experience has humbled him and also changed the attitude of many of those he interacts with in the riding. In his opinion, people open up to him now much more than they did before.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Maybe before they saw me kind of on a pedestal, like somebody different from them, somebody higher than them\u2014now I\u2018m just one of them. I\u2019m clearly off the pedestal, so they talk to me about some of their personal issues because they know I can empathize, right?&#8221; said Clement. &#8220;I went through a personal crisis so people just tell me about their personal crises that have happened in their lives so I think it not only makes me a better MP, but generally a better person.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Asked if his wife has asked him to leave politics, Clement responded: &#8220;She\u2019s been incredible throughout this whole crisis and we\u2019re working our issues out. I\u2019m not sure I want to get into excruciating detail but no, we\u2019re working these things out. She loves me, I love her and we\u2019ll work these things out,&#8221; he reiterated.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, Clement said it\u2019s business as usual. He will continue working on behalf of his constituents both in Ottawa and locally.<\/p>\n<p>The federal election takes place on October 21, 2019.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Don\u2019t miss out on Doppler!
