We found out that the <a data-HoCid=\"278908\" href=\"/politicians/sean-fraser/\" title=\"Sean Fraser\">minister</a> was copied on all communications. Shockingly, the minister said he was too busy at the time to check his personal government email account. Almost two years later, he says he still has not checked.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7718012\" data-originallang=\"en\">How is this even possible? Does the <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">Prime Minister</a> really think this is acceptable?</p>",

Nous avons d\u00e9couvert que le <a data-HoCid=\"278908\" href=\"/politicians/sean-fraser/\" title=\"Sean Fraser\">ministre</a> a re\u00e7u copie de toutes les communications. \u00c9tonnamment, le ministre a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 qu'il \u00e9tait trop occup\u00e9 \u00e0 l'\u00e9poque pour v\u00e9rifier son compte personnel de courrier \u00e9lectronique au gouvernement. Pr\u00e8s de deux ans plus tard, il affirme n'avoir toujours pas lu ces courriels.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7718012\" data-originallang=\"en\">Comment est-ce m\u00eame possible?
