Madam Speaker, the Minister of Employment pocketed money from his business partner, the same business partner who was lobbying the minister's department while securing $110 million in government contracts. Meanwhile, the minister actively hid the shady arrangement from the Ethics Commissioner. For two weeks, the minister has refused to answer the most basic question, so I will ask it again: How much did the minister pocket?

Mr. Michael Cooper (St. Albert—Edmonton, CPC)
  • May/3/24 11:58:51 a.m.
  • Watch
Mr. Speaker, the minister is clearly in full cover-up mode, because it gets worse. The minister's business partner was lobbying the minister's own department as cheques were being cut from the lobbying firm to the minister. If that does not smell of self-dealing and corruption, I do not know what does. Once again, how much has the minister pocketed from the lobbying firm since he was appointed to cabinet?
