The Liberals are attacking the Harper government for what they say is a culture of deceit.
International Co-operation Minister Bev Oda is on the hot seat for admitting she ordered an already-signed document changed to reverse funding approval for an aid group.
Liberal leader Michael Ignatieff says Oda did not take responsibility for the reversal and did not tell the truth about it later to a Commons committee.
He says the prime minister must demand her resignation but Stephen Harper says it’s Oda’s responsibility to make sure taxpayers dollars are used wisely.
