Does anyone remember the furor over some members of the military spending $50./day while on a military training exercise and the fact that they were ordered to pay it back?  Some of them had to sell their homes to do so.

 

 

 

But the more equal have a 'treasury board guideline' that allows spending of
 

"more than $3,000 a month each over the past five months to live in Ottawa hotels as they waited for an election that would decide whether it would be worth moving to the capital from Toronto."

(Minister's aides billed $35,000 for living costs)

 

 
  The election is over for one week and already the sleaze starts leaking out.
