Conservative MP Stephanie Kusie says Liberals have created a ‘shadow government’ of consultants
that federal outsourcing overall has climbed by 74 per cent, to $14.6-billion, since the Liberals formed government in 2015 on a campaign platform that promised to cut back on the use of external consultants.
“I think that the study on McKinsey is an important part of our oversight role in the context of our study on outsourcing, which is a much broader question of what should be done by the public service – and where is it reasonable, and in some contexts, it is reasonable – to give contracts outside,” he said.
Mr. Trudeau did not respond about his ties to Mr. Barton, who he named as Canadian ambassador to China in 2019, but said the contracts were awarded by non-partisan public servants.McKinsey said that it welcomed the committee’s review of its services to the federal government.
