Minister, we don't make unfounded accusations since we have accurate information.
We know that, when Mr. Barton sat on the Economic Council of Canada while being global managing director, the number of contracts awarded to McKinsey & Company skyrocketed. We also know that your old colleague, John McCallum, former immigration minister, stated in 2016 that he wasn't entirely comfortable with some of the discussions around the work being done in immigration.
How do you expect us not to connect all those dots? What are you basing yourself on when you claim that the statements we've made—that McKinsey is involved in IRCC's work—are unfounded?
