Thank you, Mr. Chair.
In the interest of Canadians, regardless of how we ask the questions, we have to consider that we are talking about billions of dollars being spent and that this raises very important questions. We have a right to ask them and we are not going to let the Liberals answer whatever they want, however they want.
Now, Madam Minister, I would like to ask you another question.
When your Deputy Minister, Mr. Matthews, came before the committee on July 23, he said this: “When we were in sole source, we were looking at some key criteria: established supply chains, ability to deliver quickly at volume, and already in the business.”
The largest medical supply contract in Canadian history was given to Proline Advantage for medical gowns. I want to know whether or not this company is well established in the medical field.
