Not exactly, the problem was that Canonical collected some money during 2012 to 2013 that was supposedly earmarked for Ubuntu flavors. However, there is no accounting for that money at the moment, though something is being worked on.
There's also the much heated debate about Canonical's IP licensing policy which is quite vague and broad IMHO. It also goes against the FOSS licenses such as the GPL and LGPL. Jonathan bought this up with the Ubuntu CC and has been pursuing this for 3 years, without much luck so far. He raised the issue again recently and has been reprimanded for supposedly using language that violates the CoC, however there has so far been no evidence backing this claim.
Due to the above the CC and Mark Shuttleworth have asked Jonathan to leave leadership positions within Ubuntu.
