Mr. Chairman, these are all wonderful things. They look great and they are also great smoke to hide behind. The problem with the auditor general is that her scope is limited. She can only call certain witnesses.
The problem with an RCMP investigation is that it is looking for criminality. We need to get beyond that. If the government were truly serious about transparency and accountability I suggest that it would have to go the route of a public inquiry. Why does the minister protest so much if accountability and transparency are paramount?
