Who Got Rich — And Why Won’t the Government Answer?
In Question Period, I pressed the government to answer a simple question: who benefited from a $200‑million spaceport deal funded by Canadian taxpayers. Instead of providing answers, we saw a pattern emerge. The CEO of the company dismissed legitimate concerns as a “clueless meme,” and the government has previously referred to similar questions as “stupid.” When questions about how hundreds of millions of dollars are being spent are met with insults rather than transparency, it raises serious concerns about accountability.
Parliament exists to hold government to account, especially when public money is involved. Canadians have every right to ask who benefited from this deal, why key details were not openly disclosed, and why insiders appeared to profit following the announcement. Dismissing those questions does not make them go away — it only reinforces the need for answers. Canadians deserve clarity, respect, and transparency when it comes to decisions of this scale, and I will continue pressing until we get them.
