Willowdale MPP’s Expense Scandal | Ottawa News

Published 1 month ago
Description

Willowdale MPP Stan Cho’s ballooning expenses—$16K in hotel stays, $100K in food and drinks, and more—are sparking chaos in the Progressive Conservative caucus. Living just six kilometers from Queen’s Park, Cho’s hotel claims are seen as indefensible, prompting the government to scrap the allowance entirely. MPPs feel blindsided, especially since Ford’s office had previously encouraged hotel bookings for night sittings. The fallout includes donor concerns, fundraising hurdles, and mounting frustration over Ford’s shifting explanations—despite his promise to repay every cent. This scandal adds fuel to an already smoldering political fire.
