Mr. Speaker, the Liberal government is violating a parliamentary order to hand over evidence to the RCMP.
At issue is the Auditor General's finding that officials at SDTC broke conflict of interest laws 186 times and funnelled $400 million of taxpayers' money into their own companies, all this at a time when Canadians can barely afford to eat or heat and house themselves.
Now, by refusing to accept the Speaker's ruling, the Liberals have effectively paralyzed Parliament, pushing aside all other work to address the housing crisis, the inflation crisis and the crime crisis the government unleashed.
Why not end the cover-up, hold the lawbreakers to account and let Parliament get back to work?
