The Libranos: Business As Usual

We found issues in nearly very contract we looked at.”

The report says that, for half of the contracts requiring security clearances, federal organizations weren’t able to show that those doing the work had the appropriate clearances before the contract was awarded.

Federal organizations lacked documentation to show that they had confirmed security clearances for just over one in five of the contracts Hogan’s office examined.

The report also found that federal organizations failed to monitor contract work and performance. Many accepted poorly drafted timesheets or failed to collect them at all. Others couldn’t show that the people doing the work had the required experience and qualifications.

Hogan said that in more than 80 per cent of the contracts examined, organizations couldn’t prove that the fees paid didn’t exceed market rates.

In just under half of the contracts, the report says, organizations had “little to no evidence” to show that deliverables were received. Despite that, payments were still made.

    1. lol,,, you still think these actions were accidental or unintentional.
      Liberals, more so than any party, know the rules. They know the boundary of the rules, and even more so know the blurred areas of the boundary of the rules. They have know problem going into those areas, because they also know the consequences, the penalties, how and who will investigate them, but most importantly they know how to deal with the fallout if they do get caught.
      Some people would say, that if this was anything other than politics, it would be called organized crime.

  1. Canadians deserve a federal ‘Sunshine List’

    With Artificial Intelligence (AI) coming more and more to the forefront it is imperative to begin to identify employment positions within the Government that can be replaced by AI.

    A ‘Federal Sunshine List’ would be an excellent tool for the identification of employment positions that are either redundant and/or obsolete.

    1. When the Conservatives were in power, many of us lobbied for a sunshine list on government workers starting at the Median household income, my MP responded that they were considering at $300k+ because the experience of Ontario was that it just drove up salaries because everyone could see what everyone else was making.

      I think term limits would be more useful, even if it would result in certain politicians not being able to run any longer. 12 to 15 years should be sufficient, and have it apply across the whole government.

  2. The Lieberals will continue to get away with this. Not one “Elbows Up!” retard cares and will continue to support “the natural governing party”.
