Canadians paid millions of dollars to get to the bottom of Liberal corruption and now the unelected minister is running roughshod over the recommendations.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"871\" data-originallang=\"fr\">The minister's plan makes a mockery of the Conservatives' promises in the election campaign. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"872\" data-originallang=\"en\">Will the government tell us why the Conservatives are now behaving like Liberals, saying one thing before an election and doing another thing afterwards?</p>",
