Mr. Speaker, Canadians would hope that this is an isolated incident. Unfortunately, it is not.
Access to information documents show that Rear Admiral Keller, who is currently the chief of financial services at NDHQ, was in receipt of separation expenses for over four years, totalling $86,000. At the same time, able seamen in Esquimalt are in welfare line-ups trying to feed their families.
This is an example of the minister's mismanagement. How can the minister allow this to go on under his nose?
