The luncheon Saskatchewan Finance Minister Donna Harpauer attended was days after she tabled a provincial budget containing tax hikes

Saskatchewan’s finance minister spent nearly $8,000 on a private plane to attend a chamber of commerce lunch days after she tabled a provincial budget containing tax hikes.

The luncheon Harpauer attended was hosted by the North Battleford Chamber of Commerce at Porta Bella Restaurant. Beck said politicians need to lead by example, especially when they are asking residents to buckle down following a budget that increased the cost of living for people. “It is standard practice to cost-share and co-ordinate charter flights, where possible, in order to reduce air travel costs,” government spokesperson Mathew Glover said in a statement.

Ummm she is not the only one taking expensive flights and raising taxes.

Did she get an honorarium for attending.?

Say it with me, the fiacalling responsible party. The law and order party. Its the gravy train party.

Her press conference today..

Now do Trudeau and company for the past month

Look how much the NDP used to spend doing the same

Greyhound has cancelled services in Sask

If Trudeau did this, the headline would read “our most wonderful leader supports local business hurt by high fuel prices, caused by all the people we don’t like”

I wonder if she's related to Bronwyn Bishop?

“. . .Donna completed high school at Lanigan Central High and went on to receive a Medical Laboratory Technologist certificate at Kelsey Institute in Saskatoon.”

It's only 8000$ , it's like the 17$ orange juice from years ago. What are they hiding with these stupid news stories, should be the question the public is asking

Now do Trudeau’s cabinet ministers

yeah. Ok. So tell me again how conservatives are 'fiscally responsible'?

SaskPartyAir

Well, well, well…

Typical Sask Party entitlement! Not in tune with the prudent use of tax money!

Thank you for covering this story. The Saskatchewan premier and his colleagues get all kinds of national attention when they wants to slam Trudeau or beak off about oil and gas. THIS kind of stuff also happens and Canadians need to know about it.

Our leaders live like royalty as they tell us about austerity.

Finance minister eh?

Living like rock stars on tax payer money just like the higher ups

That's stupid but also eh.

'minister responds by talking about the NDP in the 1990's' cuz the saskparty is the party of 'personal responsibility' (if you're poor) 🤦 skpoli

Oh yeah , what did it cost for boss Justin Trudeau to fly to Kelowna today , or his 8 flights last week that appear to nothing more than campaigning and selfies Micky ?

How much dud Trudeau spend to go to Tofino surfing on the 1 and only 1st day of Truth & Reconciliation? A day he chose by the way, not like he didn’t know…

Greedy, entitled PIGS feeding at the government trough. Flush out all the rot!

Nice. Whose not getting new books at school this year or teachers can by their own classroom pencils,pens, etc because I need to fly private

Dollars or Russian rubbles?

Ghana's president NAkufoAddo mentored her. Check out his resume, you'll forget about the woman

Take coach, like the rest of us

Good communists watching their spending 😜

Let's make a big deal about this so we can forget the governor general spent 100k on hers...
