Carney’s $772K Taxpayer Travels – Is He the Only One or is This Normal

Mark Carney's expenses are blowing up — $772K on in-flight catering and accommodations in just one year? $230K on a single Vatican trip with his wife and daughter? $472K on six trips since being elected? Taxpayers are furious, and rightly so.

But here's the real question: Is Carney the only one living large on our dime... or is this just HOW OTTAWA WORKS?

We dig into the numbers, the perks, the automatic April 1 raises (projected 4.2% this year), the $350K–$400K office budgets, 64 free flight points for family (business class), secondary residence allowances that let MPs build equity on our backs, daily per diems, hospitality budgets, and pensions indexed to inflation.

Total taxpayer burden per backbench MP? Easily over $700,000 a year.

Does that make sense to you?

Here's my fix: Pay MPs the average Canadian salary (~$68,000) and let their riding decide any bonus by referendum. They work for us — let us vote on whether they deserve extra.
