Mr. Speaker, $130,000 in fraudulent claims is shameful, and the Conservatives need to take this situation more seriously.
On Thursday morning, the senators will hold a little meeting to decide whether they should hand over the reports on this attempted fraud to the RCMP.
Fellow senators are responsible for deciding whether a senator—Liberal or Conservative—should be charged with fraud. That is absolutely ridiculous.
The worst is that the Conservatives are not doing anything to put a stop to this theft by their cronies.
Will they send a clear message to their party friends in the Senate and hand these cases of fraud over to the RCMP as soon as possible?
