Mr. Speaker, the Conservatives are so off topic. If the member wants to talk about corruption, all he needs to do is reflect on Stephen Harper; the current leader of the Conservative Party played a pivotal role, whether as parliamentary secretary to the former prime minister or as a member of his cabinet.
If he wants to talk about corruption, what about the $3.1 billion for anti-terrorism corruption? What about the $2.2-billion Phoenix scandal; the G8 spending scandal; the ETS scandal; the F-35 scandal; the Senate scandal; and election scandals, as in plural scandals? In fact, I have a booklet here called “Stephen Harper, Serial Abuser of Power” that lists the scandals and corruption. There are 70 plus in here, so there is not enough time to quote them all.
Why is it that the leader of the Conservative Party has not changed his behaviour and still feels that he can thumb his nose at Canadians? Why will the leader of the Conservative Party not get the security clearance to deal with the serious issue of foreign interference?
