The Canadian Taxpayers Federation has revealed that Carney spent over $500,000 on airplane food last year. That's more than the average family will spend on groceries in 30 years!!! Carney spends even MORE on airplane food Prime Minister Mark Carney and his entourage billed you for half a million dollars on airplane food in one year. Loyal readers of the Taxpayer Waste Watch will remember our story about Carney spending more money on airplane food than former prime minister Justin Trudeau. Well, we have some new numbers for you. And they’re bad… Carney and his entourage spent $524,100 on airplane food in one year, according to government documents obtained by the Canadian Taxpayers Federation. That’s more than an average Canadian family will spend on groceries in 30 years. Carney and his entourage billed taxpayers $159,000 for airplane food during a week-long trip to Athens, Abu Dhabi, Johannesburg and the Canary Islands. Carney also billed you $94,000 on airplane food during a trip to Italy in 2025. That’s more than double what Trudeau spent on airplane food during his trip to Italy the year before. Even when Trudeau spent $220,000 on airplane food during a trip to the Indo-Pacific, the cost worked out to $4,200 per hour. That’s still less than Carney spent on his trip to Italy. Carney spent $21,158 on airplane food during a three-hour roundtrip to Washington D.C. That’s $7,000 per hour on airplane food. Carney and crew also spent $60,000 on airplane food during a visit to Paris and London, and $50,000 during a trip to Belgium and the Netherlands. Meanwhile, other politicians and bureaucrats are proving it is possible to spend less while travelling abroad. Former defence minister Bill Blair took an international trip last year. Blair’s delegation spent just $2,350 on airplane food during the entire 12-day trip. The government’s chief of defence staff went to Washington, D.C., with members of the Canadian Armed Forces last March. They billed taxpayers zero dollars for airplane food, according to government records. Franco’s note: The government told you it would cut down on these extravagant international trips but spending half a million dollars on airplane food doesn’t exactly scream fiscal responsibility.

Small farms “aren’t impacted” by the industrial carbon tax, says the Environment Minister. So the added costs baked into fertilizer, equipment, and electricity for producers are imaginary? Her answer: you will not see a line item for it. Exactly. It’s hidden. Classic Liberal tactic: Hide the tax, then deny the damage.
