Mr. Speaker, we support the motion and we believe in getting to the bottom of the Liberal scandals.
We also believe that we should have been able to get to the bottom of all the Conservatives' scandals that happened on their watch: the ETS scandal, the G8 scandal, the F-35 procurement scandal, the Phoenix pay system scandal, the anti-terrorism fund scandal. All of those were blocked by Conservatives in the House of Commons and at committee, so we could not get to the bottom of them.
Now we have recently heard of a new scandal in Manitoba among the Conservatives. Manitoba's Conservative Party paid $3,800 for services from an intimacy coach. This is according to documents acquired by the Winnipeg Sun. This was hidden as rental car fees, but according to the website, it states that “Somatic sex education...is a form of sex therapy that individuals can engage in alone or with a partner”. These are taxpayer-reimbursed funds.
My question for the Conservatives is quite simple. They are always saying that they do not think about sex. However, the reality is, in this case, that it is an absolutely inappropriate use of taxpayer-reimbursed funds. Would the member agree that the use by the Conservative Party in Manitoba of an intimacy coach is absolutely inappropriate?
