In light of the news that there has been an exponential increase in contracts to the management consulting firm McKinsey and Company under the Trudeau government, a parliamentary committee announced last week that they will be looking into the matter. Under Trudeau, the controversial firm received a thirty-fold increase in funding when compared to the previous Harper government.
There remain many unanswered questions – including the measurable impact of the contracts, the extent of McKinsey’s involvement in the government and why couldn’t the public service fulfill the services contracted out to the consulting firm. Anthony Furey says Canadians deserve answers about the Trudeau-McKinsey contracts.
