Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer has talked for years about
his private sector experience as an insurance broker, but under
questioning Monday, he admitted he only worked in the industry for “six
or seven months.”

CBC News asked him exactly how long he’d worked in a Regina insurance office.

“I
worked from approximately spring to some time in the fall,” he said,
saying he’d have to go back and check his personal records for the exact
dates.

CBC News also asked Scheer to clarify exactly what his role was in this office.

He
said his job was “supporting the whole team … answering questions from
customers and clients and doing preparatory work.” He added that he
would also explain and pass on information to people coming into the
office.
