Mr. Speaker, some members of the Senate are apparently cheesed off.
While Canadians worry about paying for child care, Conservative and Liberal senators are worried about the appropriate temperature for serving Camembert. Senator Ruth is telling us that Canadians just do not understand how hard it is for her to “fly around the world to get here to Ottawa”. Get this, she lives in Toronto, so why are we being stuck with her flights?
Does the government really believe it is appropriate that taxpayers get stuck with the bill for these globe trotting aristocratic senators?
