They want to hide their scandals from Canadians, but the Auditor General report is very clear. The Liberal government ignored the rules and allowed insiders to profit to the tune of $64 million. The Liberals have shown a complete disdain for hard-working Canadians by promoting the very same ministers who engaged in the cronyism and corruption.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8848789\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Why should wasteful Liberal politicians get promoted while Canadian taxpayers get a $64-million bill?</p>",
