Spending $1700 of the taxpayers money on a limo is bad enough. This is a Liberal trate that just seems to keep pervading the political landscape.
This is my real beef! She lied...
Attachment 33231
They can debate this to end of time, she lied and she signed her name to that lie
My beef is that it will dismissed as a clerical error. The fact the owner of the cab company campaigned for her hardly seems to even register with the public. If a Harper minister had done this the country would have come to a grinding halt. In pretty boys kingdom anything goes. Very sad. Imagine 7 more years of this narcissistic self entitlement.
In the grand scheme of things pretty trivial. Nor something any other party is immune to. Like Duffy lying about his primary residence....
lets see see how fast the poster child who is more interested in selfies, handles it ( if at all). He might say it was uh, you know uh...um a stretch goal...uh, sorry, uh stretch limo.
:)
It will be more hypocrisy from the left. You know stuff like "she was just doing her job" which was a far cry from what they were yelling when Bev Oda charged $17 for orange juice (for the record, they both were/are dumb for doing this type of stuff).
A Liberal lied......who would have thunk it !!!!!
Sunny ways,my friends,sunny ways. :silly:Quote:

She's saying she didn't think a Lexus would be called a limo & was whining on TV that people weren't playing semantics on the word limo.
Just another pig @ the trough (literally & figuratively).
And now she has company as McKenna is spending thousands to have her picture taken. BTW $520 to have access to the lounge? Why am I thinking this is only the tip of the iceberg.
It "is" only the tip.Quote:

The Liberals howled with indignity at Mark Harb,Pamela Wallin and Mike Duffy until charges were laid. Net result? Outright acquitals for Duffy and Harb and charges dropped against Wallin. It's OK for the Libs to do,though. Funny how that works.Quote:

Only needed to send 129 people across the world for climate change something does not seem right
he likes to travel with his Inlaws. Does your employer allow you to travel with Inlaws. Mine doesn't.
What's this travel thing I keep hearing about I'm to busy paying for all of them to jet set to think of going anywhere
I agree with JBen - not that big a deal. I'm not a fan of the Trudeau government but this is small potato's to me. If you like to jump on every Liberal screwup then have at her.
Yep! We'd be too busy to poop if we did that. It's crazy,though,that everyone does the "ho-hum" thing when it comes to lyin',sneakin' politicians like it's pretty much a given. To see if they're lying,check for a pulse.Quote:

The problem is no foresight by anyone involved. Look at the health minister's comment about how ministers need to be able to do their job. She can do her job in a taxi going to the airport as well as a "limo". Or her comment about how ministers require safety. She just implied the entire taxi industry is unsafe. No one caught that? Also, why does she think she needs to be safe? During the attack on parliament hill, many left supporters mocked Harper because he hid and said he didn't need to hide because he wasn't the head of the government, so why does this minister think she needs the notion of extra security (not that there is extra protection in a taxi vs a limo (or town car))?Quote:

What people don't seem to be understanding is that she funnelling thousands of dollars to a liberal party supporter. This limo guy may have donated $250 to her campaign and now has made 10x that back. Where is the request for quotes for transportation services? Does anybody still remember why the Libranos got booted to the curb last time? Does anybody remember " I'm entitled to my entitlements", anybody remember ADSCAM? You can't teach old dogs new things. This administration will be every bit as bad as Cretien's was for bribery and fraud. Don't forget that SelfieBoy is Wynne's puppet/protege. What could go wrong?
I was commenting on the defense of taking the limo (or town car) from her house to the airport and racking up that other outrageous bill. I figured you guys would bring up the other points.Quote:
