“The minister should share his conflict of interest letter with Parliament, especially since he gave it to the media. I want to know why his ethics rules did not stop him from taking part in decisions about Alto.”
“Mr. Chair, it was the minister who said there would be a conflict of interest. The letter the minister provided to the Prime Minister should be furnished. Because we know it was shared with media, it should certainly be shared with parliamentarians. Why did the ethics screen the minister put in place not prevent him from participating in discussions, decisions, debates or votes related to Alto?”
