QUÉBEC — Quebec Premier François Legault is calling on the province's auto insurance board to fully collaborate with anti-corruption police, after it allegedly refused to hand over documents to them.
The anti-corruption unit is investigating major cost overruns related to the board's digital transition project.
"What we learned this morning is unacceptable,” the premier wrote Thursday in a post on X. “Quebecers must be confident that the whole truth will come to light."
The state-owned corporation has allegedly refused to make documents available on grounds of attorney-client privilege, La Presse first reported today.
The corporation has been mired in controversy for months, after Quebec's auditor general found that its new online platform SAAQclic was expected to cost $500 million mor
