Let's talk about Botler for a moment, please. You do know that Kristian Firth from GC Strategies testified that on not one occasion but upwards of five occasions he deliberately and intentionally doctored work experience for both of the Botler partners. He claimed it was a mistake.
Given my former background as a Crown attorney, I can tell you that all accused persons, all criminals, claim they made mistakes.
What in fact Mr. Firth did was to commit forgery, and it was a fraud on the government. What concerns me, sir, is that The Globe and Mail recently reported that both your company Dalian and Coradix received those doctored résumés, those fraudulent forged résumés, and you in fact forwarded those on to the government. That was recent news to me and perhaps to this committee, because we were all led to believe that it was Kristian Firth at GC Strategies who delivered those directly to the government.
It really begs the question: If you had only a limited amount of time with GC Strategies, why would you accept their material at face value? Now you're implicated as part of a joint venture, as a party to the offence of fraud and forgery. It's no wonder the RCMP is currently investigating your company and Coradix. Just because you haven't been contacted doesn't mean you are in the clear.
You talked about having quality management systems in place. Why didn't the quality management systems catch these fraudulent résumés?
