Madam Speaker, the student has surpassed the teacher. For the second time since the beginning of the pandemic, the Auditor General has criticized the Liberals' border management. The system lost track of 1,156 travellers who had tested positive for COVID-19. These 1,156 people who had COVID-19 came into Canada, and the Public Health Agency of Canada simply lost track of them. Over 1,000 people have been going around Canada, unaware that they have the virus. How many other people will be infected? How many more classrooms will have to be shut down? How many more people will have to quarantine?

Madam Speaker, considering how slow the government was to close the borders and provide vaccines, I think the minister needs to review his talking points and remember the beginning of the pandemic. Other findings by the Auditor General include the following: 30% of test results are missing or cannot be linked to anyone; and no one knows whether 75% of travellers followed quarantine orders upon arrival. Six hundred million dollars later, the Auditor General found, and I quote, that “the agency did not adequately administer...border control measures imposed to limit the introduction of the virus and its variants into Canada”. Cases are on the rise, but the Liberals have learned nothing. Canadians want to know why.
