“We are not creating a new kind of Crown corporation. Canada already has many of them that work closely with the government and face careful scrutiny. There is no reason to think buying military equipment this way will have less accountability.”
“Mr. Speaker, as we have seen, we are not reinventing the wheel here. We are not reinventing Crown corporations. I fail to see why, when we are talking defence procurement, we would all of a sudden have less accountability. We have many Crown corporations that operate very closely with government, but that is done with very good scrutiny.”
