The medical supply company co-founded by Liberal MP and former minister Randy Boissonnault has been suspended from bidding on or entering into contracts with the Government of Canada.

In a statement issued Tuesday, Public Services and Procurement Canada announced that as of Nov. 22, Global Health Imports Corporation has been blocked from participating in federal procurement.

Boissonnault has apologized for his shifting statements about his ancestry and said he cut ties with both the company he helped launch in 2020, as well as his ex-business partner Stephen Anderson, before joining Trudeau's cabinet.
