My guest this week is Kris Sims, Alberta Director of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation. This week, we discuss the out-of-control cost to taxpayers of Canada’s current Governor-General, Mary Simon, and even the ongoing expenses of former Governors-General. The Office of the GG—including upkeep on Rideau Hall, expensive trips abroad, clothing allowances and other perks—is over $30 million annually! Kris and I also discuss the need to get federal bureaucrats on a “sunshine” list so that Canadians have a better idea where their tax dollars are going.
