Health agency head in 'extraordinary situation' after opposition motion puts him in contempt of Parliament

His testimony comes amid an intensified focus on the operations of the National Microbiology Lab in Winnipeg, the only level-4 security infectious disease facility in Canada, equipped to handle some of the world’s deadliest pathogens.Article content

The public health agency supplied documents to a special House of Commons committee on Canada-China relations that detailed the laboratory’s operations, albeit with redactions. Earlier this week, House Speaker Anthony Rota ruled that the government’s unwillingness to supply uncensored documents amounted to a defiance of the will of Parliament.Article content

“I’ve had no conversations with anybody in the Prime Minister’s Office on this topic. And I have not had discussions with my minister’s office with respect to the intent to comply, on Monday.” Opposition members on the heath committee blasted Stewart for withholding the documents, citing past rulings that have found the right of Parliament to compel documents “supersedes statutory obligations.”Article content

President of PHAC Iain Stewart is a political appointee, appointed by Trudeau in 2020. What makes him (& the anonymous Justice Dept. officials he claims advised him) think HE'S entitled to see these docs but a special Parliamentary committee is not? Trudeau stooge? LOCK HIM UP

Is this in reference to the two Chinese Students/people who were caught stealing from the lab and running off - returning to China?

Covid-19 created in Canada, perfected in China 💀

What is behind all this obfuscation and reluctance to tell Canadians what went wrong in the lab in Manitoba? It is far worse to allow us to draw our own conclusions than it is to tell us the truth. Is there any fear that Canada will incur further wrath in the eyes of the world?
