Steven MacKinnon Liberal
“The Leader of the Opposition spent $8.8 million on his office in 2024. The Prime Minister spent $4.1 million. The Conservative leader spent more than double, and he needs to explain why.”
“Mr. Speaker, we have some news here. We looked up leader expenditures for 2024, and I will be very interested to look at 2025, because we all know what happened there. We had a summer sojourn at Stornoway that was a little iffy. However, in 2024, Mr. Leader of the Opposition spent $8.8 million in the Leader of the Opposition’s office, and he does not have to make one single decision. The Liberal leader spent $4.1 million. That is double. That is bad. They have some answering to do.”
