The Globe and Mail has a shocking story today about abuse of the indigenous procurement program by the Canadian Health Care Agency. According to a whistle-blower, the government was putting in place tight constraints on the work of auditors as soon as they started to identify serious problems. The government was warned by auditors, and their response to those warnings was to make life more difficult for the auditors.
Minister, you told my colleague Michael Barrett that you only heard about allegations against the Canadian Health Care Agency this weekend. Is that correct?
