Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says his government will examine federal contracts awarded to consulting firm McKinsey and Company.
Opposition parties are demanding explanations after multiple reports cited significant government contracts going to the global consulting firm since Trudeau and the Liberals formed government in 2015.
On Jan. 4, Radio-Canada reported the firm received $66 million in the seven fiscal years between March 2015 and April 2022.Trudeau says contracting with private companies is a normal government activity but he has asked Procurement Minister Helena Jaczek and Treasury Board President Mona Fortier to make sure the contracts were awarded properly.
Poilievre said the motion will force the Liberal government to make public all the documents, text messages and emails related to its relationship with McKinsey.
