#DougFord says he’s being treated with ‘double standard’ on jet purchase, but says he’s heard ‘loud and clear’ from public
Double standard? This Premier is so out of touch! He’s complaining about using public funds for a jetliner to taxi him while fuel prices are soaring, rent is out of control

You mean like the prime minister speaking $524,000 in one year on inflight catering ? Like that?

Don’t care. There is no universe that this is acceptable expenditure. You’re okay with 1/2 million dollars a year in on flight catering? THIS the very definition of EAT CAKE
