And just like that, the province has spent and lost money for no reason lmao.

And the tax payers will continue to foot the bill. Dougie should be made liable for the loss in taxpayer funds

What was his justification for buying this in the first place? He is a provincial leader, not a federal leader, so he won't be needing to go overseas frequently enough to buy it. And even if he wants to use it to go to Ottawa to talk to Mark Carney, well, Ottawa is in his province so he won't need a plane.

You don't understand, he needs to land in Gatineau! So far away!

Why have we been saddled with this clown for so long? Who keeps voting him in? Talk to your parents, folks.

Seriously does no one pay attention to the idiocracy of this guy?

Also talk to the people who choose what clowns run in (and lead) the Liberal and NDP parties, because frankly a lot of people simply didn't like those people either. It is unfortunate that government is a popularity contest more than a policy contest, but we have to operate within that reality at least until the progressives among us can gain enough traction to actually improve things and start to educate more people.

And did we tell you the name of the game, boy?
We call it selling the gravy plane!
