Pierre Paul-Hus Conservative
“Canadians are struggling to afford food and everyday costs. At the same time, the Prime Minister spent nearly $1 million on airplane food for 14 trips. I want to know if he thinks that is a responsible use of taxpayers' money.”
“Mr. Speaker, when the Prime Minister left his job as the chair of Brookfield in New York to come to Canada, he forgot that he was no longer working for a private company but for Canadian taxpayers. Right now, Canadians are going through a recession. They are paying more for everything, and millions are struggling to make ends meet. Meanwhile, government documents show that the Prime Minister spent nearly $1 million on inflight catering for just 14 trips. While families have to watch every penny they spend at the grocery store, does the Prime Minister really think that spending $1 million on inflight meals is a responsible use of taxpayers’ money?”
