Mr. Speaker, in the February 9 Ottawa Citizen we read that two years ago the Liberal member for Renfrew—Nipissing—Pembroke asked Human Resources Development Canada to stop giving grants to the Ottawa Valley Adjustment Committee and to launch an investigation into its operations.
We also read that approximately $100,000 was apparently used to pay the rent, rather than create jobs.
Was the minister aware of this case when she said that there was no problem with her department's management of funds?
