Mr. Speaker, there is yet another case in the long list of scandals at the Department of Human Resources Development.
A grant of over $700,000 was paid to a business, Modes Conili, to create 160 jobs. However, it appears that most of the jobs were simply transferred from an existing business to Modes Conili.
How can the minister justify the payment of a grant of over $700,000 from the transitional jobs fund, when jobs were merely transferred from one company to another?
