Discussion · Government Orders
Michael Barrett Conservative
“A contractor worked for a company called Alto while also working on the government budget that gave Alto money. I want the minister to answer if this was a conflict of interest, if anything was done to stop it, and if the Ethics Commissioner was told.”
“Mr. Chair, the contractor worked for Alto and then worked on the budget presentation that included details about Alto, and money and implementation legislation for Alto. Does the minister recognize that this is a conflict of interest, and were measures taken to prevent that? Was the Ethics Commissioner informed that this contractor was also concurrently employed by Alto?”
