“The health committee should investigate how the government spent 300 million dollars on the PrescribeIT program. The Liberals are trying to block this investigation, and they are using a study on HIV as an excuse to do it. Will the parliamentary secretary agree to a full investigation?”

“Mr. Speaker, it is always a pleasure to be here at the late show. Canadians across the country are demanding that the health committee investigate the Liberals’ $300-million PrescribeIT scandal. When Conservatives called on the Auditor General to investigate, the Liberal Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Health moved to turn off the committee cameras. Since then, she has refused to explain herself to the committee. She has refused to explain herself to Parliament. She has refused to explain herself to the media. She has refused to explain herself to her constituents, and she has refused to explain herself to Canadians. Now the Liberals are pulling an even more disgusting political stunt. They are using Canadians suffering with HIV as an excuse to bury the truth. They are hiding behind an HIV study, a study that Conservatives have publicly agreed to support, to stop the health committee from working and to block an investigation into PrescribeIT. Even HIV organizations are now calling out the Liberals for politicizing this issue. Let us think about that. The Liberals are so desperate to cover up $300 million in wasted taxpayers’ money that they are using Canadians suffering with HIV as a political shield. My question is simple. Will the Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Health commit today to supporting a full investigation into the PrescribeIT scandal, yes or no?”

“Does the government support investigating the 300 million dollars spent on PrescribeIT, yes or no?”

“Mr. Speaker, this is a very simple question. Does the Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Health support investigating the $300 million spent on PrescribeIT, yes or no?”
