House Hansard - 298

44th Parl. 1st Sess.

Context: House Hansard - 298 - Apr/11/24
Mr. Larry Brock (Brantford—Brant, CPC)

Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister is not worth the cost or corruption. In the past year, the government has spent over $21 billion on outside consultants. Rather than helping struggling Canadians, he is focused on making Liberal insiders richer. It is no shock that the Liberal-favoured GC Strategies, which pocketed $20 million for doing nothing on arrive scam, was founded in the same year he took office. Will the Prime Minister commit to cutting all waste and corruption in the upcoming budget, or will he continue to make more Liberal insiders rich?

Hon. Dominic LeBlanc (Minister of Public Safety, Democratic Institutions and Intergovernmental Affairs, Lib.)
  • Apr/11/24 3:04:59 p.m.
  • Watch
Mr. Speaker, as my colleague knows, the Minister of Public Services and Procurement, the President of the Treasury Board and I, as the minister responsible for the Canada Border Services Agency, have already taken steps to reduce reliance on outside consultants. We have reviewed and changed the process for approving these kinds of contracts. We will continue to look at everything necessary to ensure that taxpayers' money is well spent. The people who are responsible for these decisions know they will be held accountable in the case of misuse or abuse.
