Canada’s Office of the Auditor General (OAG) – the government arm tasked to audit and report on the use and management of public resources by public entities – has fired two workers for having undisclosed contracts with the federal government itself, according to reports.
The OAG first discovered the two fired employees had government contracts in June 2023 from Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC), reported the National Post.
For one of the workers, the PSPC asked the OAG if the employee of a company it was investigating still worked for the auditor general.
