This Is How Scandals Start… Watch Closely
Something doesn’t add up in Ottawa.
A federal healthcare program called PrescribeIT ballooned from $40 million to nearly $300 million… only to be cancelled due to low adoption.
That alone should raise serious questions.
But what happened next is even more concerning.
When Conservative MP Dan Mazier pushed for documents and financial transparency from Canada Health Infoway and Telus Health, Liberal members of the health committee voted to move the discussion behind closed doors, with no explanation.
No public debate.
No transparency.
No accountability.
Parliamentary Secretary Maggie Chi initiated the move to go in-camera, and with their newly secured majority, the Liberals carried the vote.
Government House Leader Steven MacKinnon insists that “no one is shutting down debate.”
But Canadians are left asking:
If there’s nothing to hide… why hide it?
In this episode of Tap the Maple, we break down:
The true cost of the PrescribeIT program
What “in-camera” really means for transparency
Why this fits a familiar political pattern
And what this could mean for accountability under Prime Minister Mark Carney
This isn’t just about one program.
It’s about whether Canadians are being kept in the dark.
