I guess the slush fund junkies are in rehab, Mr. Speaker.
It turns out that the Minister of Industry, when she was the president of the Treasury Board, in the year prior to the formal approval of this program, received or was attributed as having received, according to the government, 28 sponsorship grants worth over $3 million, grants that went through no formal process, that totally violated all of the Treasury Board guidelines.
I want to know, how did the Treasury Board president allow this to happen under her own nose?
