Thank you.

Mr. Cory, your shamelessness, at points, is just shocking.

The company got $200 million from your bank. The president, chairman of the board and two directors are, by FINTRAC's definition, “politically exposed persons”. They are all relatives of former or current Liberal members of Parliament.

Did you know this before you gave them the loan?
