The Canadian Taxpayers Federation is calling on newly appointed Governor General Mary Simon to reform the unaffordable taxpayer-funded perks provided to governors general.
“Rideau Hall needs to re-establish trust with Canadians and a good first step would be to reform the unfair perks connected to the position,” said Franco Terrazzano, Federal Director for the CTF. “The government isn’t flush with cash and many families and businesses are still struggling and this is the right time for Canada’s new governor general to show respect for taxpayers.”
