Mr. Speaker, coming from the minister of gazebos, it is easy to believe that he does not actually know the difference.
The President of the Treasury Board made a very serious and false accusation. He said that public servants were abusing their sick leave. He claimed that they took 18 sick days a year, but he was comparing completely different things. It was a fabrication on his part. He was incorrect because he exaggerated and played with the figures, overstating them by almost 50%.
Why did he drag honest public servants through the mud?
