MP Reacts to Former Children's Aid Investigator, Jason Walker, Investigation

Jason Walker is the 31 year-old Victoria man awaiting an appearance in court charged with fraud.

Saanich police allege he's been passing himself off as a doctor when he is not.

Walker also had a taste for politics, serving as president of the federal Liberal party riding association in Esquimalt-Juan de Fuca in 2006.

The MP who represents that riding, Keith Martin, says he is shocked and dismayed by news a former campaign volunteer and party colleague has been charged with fraud.

Martin, who says he last saw Walker a year ago, remembers the accused as a "hardworking and intelligent" person.

Martin says Walker's professional credentials were not relevant to the work he did for the riding association.
