Public Services and Procurement
During oral questions on public services and procurement, the Conservatives asked about federal funding for Telesat and the closeness of the personal relationship between the Prime Minister, the minister responsible, and the company’s CEO, arguing the Prime Minister should have stepped back from decisions involving the company the way the minister did, and asking why the government was directing money to the company given that relationship. The Liberals replied that Canada has strong ethics rules and that members follow them every day, and characterized the opposition’s questions as overwrought. The exchange stayed on this back-and-forth about ethics rules and the Telesat funding.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
