Mr. Chair, what is not appropriate is for a minister to refuse to answer questions when the opposition is looking to determine if we can have confidence in his department and when the Liberals are looking for $222 billion in new spending authorities, which is the exercise that we have this evening in this committee of the whole.
How did the Treasury Board, the minister's department, allow payments of $60 million for what is known as the arrive scam to be paid to GC Strategies without documented deliverables?
