Mr. Speaker, over the past five years Groupe Polygone, a firm that the immigration minister used to work for, has received $10 million in questionable communications contracts from public works. In one example, taxpayers paid out $400,000 over and above the book rate to run ads in the Quebec publication
Almanach du peuple.
Why does the minister not admit that paying inflated rates for services is just one more unethical way of paying off political friends?
