Ethics  I am not going to ask questions that the Prime Minister is not going to answer. I will assume that he knew that the Green family contributed to the Trudeau Foundation before going on vacation with them. I will move on to the ethical point. Can he tell the House, Quebeckers and Canadians the cost of the accommodation where he stayed, and whether he personally paid, out of his own pocket, for the stay?

Ethics  Today, we learned that not only did he force these same taxpayers to pay $160,000 for his vacation, but that he also spent that vacation in a luxury villa owned by a Trudeau Foundation donor. Did the Prime Minister pay for his own stay in that villa?

Ethics  However, they will still have to pay for someone else's vacation, $160,000 of taxpayer expenses for the Prime Minister to go down to a private villa, the luxurious villa of a super-rich Trudeau Foundation donor for which the nightly cost is as much as $9,000. How much did the Prime Minister pay for his accommodations at this luxurious villa?

Ethics  If any other Canadian had stayed there, that is what they would have had to pay, and they would have had to pay for their own airfare, not having a private jet. The Prime Minister wants us to believe that these Trudeau Foundation donors offered him a $9,000-a-night vacation for nothing. We know nothing is free. This is about influence and power for the super-rich. Why will the Prime Minister not answer?

Leader of the Liberal Party of Canada  Speaker, just this past Christmas, the Prime Minister and his family holidayed at a luxurious estate in Jamaica belonging to a wealthy family that just so happened to have recently made a large donation to the Trudeau Foundation. Who would have thought? While one in five Canadians are skipping meals, the Prime Minister's lavish and luxurious family trip cost taxpayers $160,000 for security and staff accommodations.

Democratic Institutions  Speaker, we already knew that, according to intelligence services, Beijing's Communist government contributed $140,000 to the Trudeau Foundation specifically to influence the Liberal leader who is now the Prime Minister of Canada. Now we have learned that it was his brother who signed the agreement to obtain this money.

Democratic Institutions  Speaker, it was definitely a family business for the Prime Minister, whether it was the WE Charity paying his brother and mother and the Prime Minister claiming to know nothing about it as he handed a half-billion dollars over to that organization or the Trudeau Foundation, which got $140,000 from the dictatorship in Beijing for the specific purpose of influencing his decisions in politics. Now we know that his own brother was the one who negotiated and signed the deal to receive the money.

Public Accounts committee  Chair, I also want to provide a notice of motion on the other matter: That the committee report to the House that it calls on the Auditor General to conduct a fulsome audit of the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation, with a focus on foreign interference. I am providing that as a notice of motion. I think that reflects our conversation, but, of course, we can wordsmith that later on. That's it.

Public Accounts committee  We're talking about this committee doing a study, and we're talking about asking the Auditor General to do an audit of the Trudeau Foundation. Now, we are in favour of both of those things happening. We think that the role of the Auditor General in pursuing it is very important. Unfortunately, the Auditor General's office, in our view, hasn't been sufficiently resourced.

Public Accounts committee  On item (v) and replacing the first part of the sentence, instead of “it has been reported by media”, replace that with “the Foundation wrote to the Auditor General to investigate donations from a wealthy individual connected to the CCP Regime”, and then just change (h) to read—instead of “other witnesses as deemed necessary”—“Edward Johnson, Bruce McNiven and Peter Sahlas, from the board of directors for the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation”, and then have “(i) other witnesses as deemed necessary by the committee”.

Procedure and House Affairs committee  We have a situation where Canadian universities received funding from foreign interests. There is growing evidence that the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation had ongoing ties with the Prime Minister's cabinet and that interference took place in at least 11 ridings, possibly more. Hasn't this matter become too big to be handled within the government?

Committees of the House  There, the Prime Minister appointed a Liberal crony, someone who was the president of the Trudeau Foundation for several years. Not only was he the president of the Trudeau Foundation, but he also actually facilitated a $200,000 donation from a Beijing political operative to the Trudeau Foundation.

Information & Ethics committee  We know that the CCP undertook a campaign to gain influence with Mr. Trudeau through clandestine funding of his family foundation, the Trudeau Foundation. Do you believe that campaign has been effective?

Michael BarrettConservative

Government Appointments  Speaker, for the Emergencies Act commission, the government named a Liberal staffer as the independent commissioner. For the foreign interference rapporteur, it named a member of the Trudeau Foundation and the Prime Minister's ski buddy. Now it needed someone to be an ethics commissioner, so it named a Liberal minister's sister-in-law to that position of independent Ethics Commissioner.

Business of Supply  On February 28, we learned that Chinese millionaire Zhang Bin, under pressure from the Chinese government, had given $1 million to the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation and McGill University. We figured there were ties with the government and perhaps the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation. I know that we are not supposed to say the Prime Minister’s name in the House, but it is sounds a bit like that.
