Madam Speaker, while the government was worrying about the exposure of its unethical behaviour, there was a blue wave sweeping across the country. The Toronto Argonauts were beating the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. I congratulate the Toronto Argonauts, their quarterback Nick Arbuckle and head coach Ryan Dinwiddie on this remarkable win.
My father was a football referee for 35 years. What would he say now? He would say, “I am throwing the flag on the government's accountability metrics, and assigning a 15-yard penalty and loss of downs for its absence of financial management.” When the Liberals refuse to play by the rules, he would add another five yards for unsportsmanlike conduct.
Is this ethical lapse another demonstration of a top-down lack of ethics in the Liberal government?
