Pay $100 each to see the minister
CAQ’s brewing scandal over charging to see a government minister continues, with grieving parents of a woman who died in a car crash told to pay $200 to meet Geneviève Guilbault for two minutes each to talk about drunk driving laws. I wonder whether an aide stands by with a stopwatch. Guilbault denies all knowledge of the pay‑per‑view policy.
Friday, the party is offering to pay the couple back. I’m afraid that particular political horse has already fled the barn.

“I wonder whether an aide stands by with a stopwatch.” Quite probably. Maybe not an actual stopwatch but it will be someone’s job to keep the line flowing.
