That is not good enough, Mr. Speaker.
The National Research Council of Canada bought $100,000 worth of clothing, and the Transportation Safety Board of Canada bought $75,000 worth of T-shirts for its employees.
The Conservatives have no way of knowing if that clothing was made in factories that exploit workers. Sixteen federal departments have no idea where their clothing is manufactured.
When will the government lead by example and adopt a socially responsible clothing procurement policy?
