Mr. Speaker, he says he is new, but there might be something he is unaware of, so I will explain it to him slowly: The ministers who authorized those expenditures are members of his cabinet. They were not terminated like GC Strategies was, as the government's Minister of Government Transformation said yesterday. They were promoted. That is the truth.
The House has already demanded that the money paid to GC Strategies be returned. Unfortunately, we have not seen a dime of it yet. That $64 million comes from income tax and other taxes paid by Canadians. The Liberal government has abused their trust.
Our motion is clear. Will the Prime Minister vote to protect his ministers or to ensure that Canadians get their money back?
