Members of the parliamentary ethics committee agree to call federal cabinet minister Randy Boissonnault to testify over his ties to a lobbyist and medical supply company.

Minister Randy Boissonnault to testify before ethics committee over ties to lobbyist and PPE companyKonrad von Finckenstein to testify about the minister’s ties to a lobbyist and a medical supply company revealed by Global News.

Boissonnault’s office told Global News the minister has followed conflict of interest and lobbying rules. Boissonnault maintains that he resigned from GHI’s board after he won back his seat in 2021 and that he asked Anderson to update the business registries, which didn’t happen. “The office is aware that even after a reporting public office holder has resigned their directorship in a company, it can take some time for corporate registries to be updated to reflect that change,” Wrobel said in a statement.GHI went on to win at least $8.2 million in municipal and provincial contracts. Industry professionals said a small startup securing government contracts of this size was unusual.

Speaking on why he asked for this probe, ethics critic Barrett said it “would give us the opportunity to provide transparency to Canadians where that seems to have failed, both in the minister’s most recent appearance at committee, but also in his disclosures to officers of Parliament.”The minister’s links to GHI and Navis Group were not obvious in documents posted on the ethics commissioner’s registry describing his conflicts of interest.
