Dominic LeBlanc

Replying to Jason Groleau (Conservative)
“Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister is completely lacking in transparency. At the Major Projects Office, employees work for the government but are paid by private companies that could benefit from decisions that are, shall we say, favourable to them. Who pays whom? Who decides what? Who keeps an eye on all these people? Who benefits? Above all, who is lining their pockets? The Liberals refuse to answer simple questions like those. Then they ask Canadians to trust them. What is the Prime Minister hiding from us?”

Mr. Speaker, I understand why our colleague is spouting phrases like “lining their pockets”. He is desperately hoping to make it onto the evening news tonight. He should think twice before using words that he knows full well are not true. He referenced the Major Projects Office. Yes, employees from the private sector are seconded to work at the Major Projects Office. This program has been around for over 50 years. It is transparent and rigorous, and the rules are always followed.
