OTTAWA, ON: The Canadian Taxpayers Federation is releasing a federal report regarding former governors general's expense accounts. The report shows the estate of a former governor general can claim office expenses for six months after their death.
"It was bad enough that taxpayers should have to cover hundreds of thousands of dollars a year in expenses for retired governors general," said CTF Federal Director Aaron Wudrick. "Now we learn that taxpayers are on the hook for their office expenses even after they've departed from this world."
