Mr. Speaker, the minister keeps ducking the questions. I know he picked up some bad habits when he was destroying Ontario with Mike Harris but shouting and pointing to irrelevant facts that have nothing to do with the question is not accountability.
The fact is that if he was wrong to award this contract to a Tory insider, then it is wrong for her to be paid a single penny, period.
If the minister will not ask Ms. Lapointe to repay the money, will he actually demonstrate some accountability and repay the money himself?
