Speaking to the House of Commons public accounts committee about his spring report, interim Auditor-General John Wiersema scolded the Conservative government for a “one-of-a-kind” situation unlike anything he has ever seen in his 33 years working in the A-G’s office.
...
The interim A-G said he�s �very concerned� that no government documents exist to explain how the Conservatives selected 32 municipal projects in Clement�s Parry Sound-Muskoka riding that were included in a $50-million G8 Legacy Infrastructure Fund.

�Supporting documentation is important for transparency and accountability,� he said.

The $50-million was spent in the lead-up to the summit on a variety of projects ranging from the construction of a gazebo, public washrooms and sidewalk upgrades many kilometres from the G8 event site in Huntsville.


The contempt of parliament ruling wasn't opposition shenanigans. It was a result of the Conservatives actual contempt for parliament.
