Mr. Speaker, the only person who is stonewalling Parliament is the Prime Minister in his refusal to hand over these documents. Let me correct some of the misinformation we continue to hear from this member over the course of this debate. First of all, SDTC received a clean bill of health in 2017, and it was only after hand-picked Liberal board members ended up on the board that we are even having this conversation. SDTC is not arm's-length. The minister recommends board appointments. The Liberals recommend other Liberals, who funnel money into their Liberal companies. That is what we want to get to the bottom of, and I am not sure why the stonewalling. The member can go to the Prime Minister and say, “Let's just give those documents to Parliament, like the Speaker asked us to.”
In the House of Commons on October 9th, 2024. See this statement in context.
