Mr. Speaker, if the minister was in Washington promoting oil industry business, his department should not have picked up the tab for the trip.
This little non-INAC junket to hobnob with Washington elite was more than $14,000 and INAC footed most of this bill. Why did the oilmen he was lobbying for not offer to pick up the tab?
When will the minister repay his department and turn his attention to the first nations housing, child welfare and water crises that all need his attention?
