In February 2015 Harris was among a group of NDP MPs accused by the Board of Internal Economy of misspending taxpayers dollars by funding NDP satellite offices after the 2011 election. Harris was initially ordered to pay back $141 467 to Canadian taxpayers. The NDP indicated its intention to challenge the ruling in federal court.[5][6] In December 2015 Harris was exonerated by the House of Commons after providing proof that the Liberal and Conservative dominated BOIE had improperly charged him for staff working in his constituency office doing parliamentary work.[7][8][8] Harris had the original order from the BOIE framed so he will never forget just how far they'll go to win. In the 2015 Canadian federal election, Harris lost his riding to former Toronto Police Chief Bill Blair.
