Mr. Speaker, the Auditor General regularly exposes government negligence and incompetence, and today is no exception. The latest report also reveals that the Liberals refused to give the Auditor General the information he requested.

After being elected on promises of openness and transparency, the Liberals have deliberately stonewalled the Auditor General.
Why is the government undermining the Auditor General, and what exactly is it trying to hide from Canadians?
