Mr. Speaker, the Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food's chief of staff faces allegations of perjury in court this week.
Is it true that this is a private prosecution because the previous charge filed was thrown out by Justice of the Peace and former Ontario Liberal agriculture minister Leona Dombrowsky, whose family sold its quota to the same chief of staff's company?
There was $140 million of egg quota, lawsuits left and right, sealed court records, and a failed Liberal candidate.
Why is the minister keeping this walking, talking ethics time bomb around?
