Madam Speaker, my colleague made many important points about the immense corruption we are seeing from the coalition right now, but I want to ask him specifically about the arrive scam scandal because I know he has done a great deal of work on it.
We have seen how rotten the procurement system has become under the government and how these tiny companies that ostensibly do not do much of anything can receive contracts and pass those contracts on. They are sitting on this unexplained gold mine, where the government pays them and they pay somebody else less and collect a fee along the way, getting millions of dollars for at best being LinkedIn recruiters. The government has refused to come clean about who is responsible for the decisions to hire these companies.
We asked about that repeatedly, and I put in an Order Paper question, in fact, to try to get the answer. Who is responsible for hiring GC Strategies for ArriveCAN? Can the member share what he thinks is behind this deep rot at the heart of our procurement system that is leading to the waste of millions and millions of dollars?
