"We're all in this together"...

...Though Sikh criminal and government civil servant Sanjay Madan is apparently in it more than we are.

The government alleges Singh paid Madan $5 million in commissions, while other companies paid Madan a further $5 million for government contracts.

"Sanjay accepted some or all of the secret commissions in cash and/or caused some or all of the secret commissions to be paid or diverted into accounts controlled by him and/or by his companies," the document states.

Madan's lawyer had no immediate comment on the new allegations. Singh could not be immediately reached for comment.

Earlier, a Crown lawyer said the Ontario government had yet to recover the more than $11 million in COVID-19 relief money the province accuses Madan and his relatives of embezzling.

Another reason to cut back on the size and scope of government. You can't steal fifty bushels of apples from a one bushel basket.
