Mr. Speaker, government transparency is at stake here.
We know that Option Canada is directly connected to the Minister of Intergovernmental Affairs. This organization has managed to make $4.8 million disappear and is still refusing to act on our access to information requests. In one case we have been waiting for 195 days and in the other 225.
How can the minister of clarity, who is responsible for this group, justify such unacceptable behaviour? Is it on grounds of national security, or for the security of friends of the Liberal party?
