Mr. Speaker, yesterday the President of the Treasury Board said the Prime Minister's chief of staff Brodie and senior adviser Burney paid their “own freight” for a stealth trip to Washington they tried to hide. Not true. Today we learned these PMO hacks took a one day, round trip, private government jet joyride, every cent at the cost of Canadian taxpayers, and every cent outside the rules.
Why did the minister mislead the House? Why did the government try to hide this meeting? What other expenses is the government trying to bury?
