Premier Doug Ford’s Progressive Conservatives are under fire after former provincial bureaucrat Sanjay Madan was able to steal $47.4 million in taxpayers’ money.
The one-time Ministry of Education information technology leader was terminated in October 2020.
But Madan also confessed to stealing another $36.6 million as part of a complex “fee-for-service” computer consultant scam dating back to January 2011.Knowing the government paid about $900 per day to computer consultants, Madan subcontracted workers at a daily rate of $400 to $500 and pocketed the difference.
“This individual was able to siphon millions of dollars out of public coffers with no one on that side noticing. It’s very concerning, to say the least,” she said. “The fact the individual was identified by the police and has pled guilty it seems to be quite obvious that we did find out who it was and what they were doing,” he said.
