How about the former minister of public works and government services, who says, using these kinds of powers, “Let us have the power to award contracts without tender. Let us be able to send them out to our friends, our donors, and let us get into a big advertising scheme and pay these people whether they actually do the work we have contracted for or not”.
Imaginons que l'ancien ministre des Travaux publics et des Services gouvernementaux décide d'accorder des contrats sans appel d'offres à des amis et des contributeurs politiques, de se lancer dans un grand programme de commandites et de payer les gens, qu'ils accomplissent ou non le travail.
