8:30 – Federal Infrastructure Minister Catherine McKenna is under pressure to prove the existence of roughly 20,000 taxpayer-funded projects which are supposed to be underway or completed, according to Blacklock’s Reporter. Parliamentary Budget Officer Yves Giroux cited McKenna for the lack of transparency last week, saying he had faith that the projects existed but it was hard to be convinced. McKenna noted some of the projects carry privacy concerns, such as new women’s shelters, but was still unable to demonstrate their existence. CPC MP Pierre Poilievre said the government claims they’re spending $10B/year on infrastructure, but are only accounting for half that amount. Blacklock’s Managing Editor Tom Korski joins Gormley to discuss the missing projects.
