We're almost 24 hours removed from Justin Trudeau's political embarrassment that yet another two-person basement firm received $8 million in taxpayer funding. To make the matter even worse, the person also receives a paycheque from the Government of Canada. It's an absolute embarrassment.
My question is for both the Treasury Board and the Department of Finance.
Treasury Board representatives, in light of this embarrassment, has Minister Anand asked you specifically in the last 24 hours if any employees in the ministry are also working as contractors?
