Madam Speaker, I particularly appreciate the member for Durham's contribution to this debate that leads us to reflect on the recommendations. I will direct him to the ones pertaining to the Auditor General of Canada. Just like an independent public inquiry, it is a means to ask independent people to change things.
Recommendation 3 proposes that “the House of Commons ask the Office of the Auditor General [to conduct] a comprehensive audit of the programs of Canadian Heritage pertaining to sports”. There is also recommendation 7, which suggests that “the Office of the Auditor General of Canada conduct a special audit of Sport Canada’s 2019 directive, which requires national sports organizations to integrate for-profit private firms as independent third parties in the complaint processes involving athletes and their sports organizations, and the audit should consider [various elements]”, including everything to do with complaints and individuals.
Could the Office of the Auditor General of Canada take the mandate to shed light on what is happening in sports organizations and on the funding that Canadians invest in sport?
I would like to know what my colleague thinks.
