Poilievre grills Carney over spending $195,400 on airplane food during three international trips.
Carney talks about what he hears from "international investors."
Pro tip for Carney: You can travel abroad without billing taxpayers six figures for airplane food.
How does Carney and entourage rack up a $195,400 airplane food bill on three international trips?
Here's some of the airplane food they enjoyed on your dime (from government ATIPs):
Beef tenderloin with bordelaise sauce.
Scottish salmon fillet.
Sautéed beef with "world famous creamy sauce."
Chicken with white wine gravy.
Lamb rump, veal escalope...
For dessert? "Luxury Normandy butter cups," blueberry cheesecake, crème brûlée, chocolate mousse ...
Records also show multiple wines served on board.
On Steve Simmons...
I have no issue with the premise of his question, asked cordially.
For example:
"Based on my research, it seems John Chayka's a polarizing figure around the league. In fact, most of the people I talked to were surprised by your decision to hire him. Can you elaborate on your due diligence process and share your perspective on the incidents which led to punishment from the league?"
I mean, that's a heater as written.
I have an issue with calling John Chayka a liar and a con man, as corroborated by 19 of 20 anonymous sources.
I have an issue with an experienced journalist hijacking the press conference, turning it into a spectacle about an uncommonly explosive question. Especially in this setting. I think it's a disservice to the staff and the fan base.
The biggest issue I have, though, is that he directed the question to Keith Pelley. John Chayka is sitting right next to him. If you want to call the guy a liar and a con man, at least have the courtesy to say it to him directly.
The problem is... it's a lot like when a Karen starts an argument with an employee at a Best Buy. Karen has no obligation to conduct herself in any particular way - she's free to fly off the handle. The employees are wearing a uniform. There are customers in the store. They don't have the same luxury. It's a gutless exchange.
Par for the course from Steve Simmons.
