Mr. Speaker, that is utter nonsense.
The former minister of ACOA pork-barrelled the agency. His own members complained about it because some 50% of the funding was taken by one riding.
The former minister in fact spun out the story that this was being investigated by the Auditor General. Speaking to the Auditor General's office today, it was confirmed that it was just a story spun out by the minister himself. There is no audit.
Will the minister conduct an audit, yes or no?
