MPs on a House of Commons committee said today they are still awaiting lists of subcontractors and invoices yet to be released by the Canadian Border Services Agency (CBSA) to explain how the federal government spent $54 million on the ArriveCan app.

“There’s definitely questions on if this delay is a result of simply not knowing; more accounting errors; has there been direction given in hopes that a scandal for government goes away—or at worst, that there’s a coverup happening,” Conservative MP Michael Barrett told the House government operations and estimates committee on Nov. 14.
