Mr. Speaker, since the Conservative government has been in office it has repeatedly misled the Canadian public.
The Minister of Public Works stated yesterday that he would promote fairness, openness and transparency in the bidding process and yet we find that the Department of Public Works has reached a $600 million agreement with Minto Development after the company submitted an unsolicited proposal.
Is this a case of Conservative hypocrisy or is this what happens when we have a minister who is not accountable?
