Liberals block ventilator contract access filing for three years
https://www.rebelnews.com/liberals_block_ventilator_contract_access_filing_for_three_years
Three years later, and the federal government is still hiding information relating to a sole-source contract that benefitted former Liberal MP Frank Baylis.
Rebel News' request for documents relating to the federal government's award of a ventilator contract to former Liberal MP Frank Baylis's company has been stonewalled since December 2020.
The sole-sourced March 2020 contract for 10,000 ventilators came in at $237 million and was made with an obscure company, FTI Professional Grade, formed just one week before the contract was awarded. The subcontract manufacturer of the ventilators, however, was Baylis Medical, run by one-term Liberal MP Frank Baylis, who had not run for reelection in September 2019.
But there is more than just shameless cronyism; this is something next level. From Le Journal de Quebec:
Manufactured in Mississauga, Ontario, the ventilators, based on an identical model manufactured by Medtronic, were sold for $23,700 per unit in Ottawa for a total sum of $237 million.
That's $10,000 more than the model sold by Medtronic.
Like so much during COVID, those ventilators were not approved for use in Canada but ordered anyway.
And it seems the Public Health Agency of Canada didn't even want them. The Baylis ventilators were never used and sat collecting dust iPost too long. Click here to view the full text.
