There is no way out of the political paralysis over the Prime Minister’s official residence. It might be time to let 24 Sussex Drive go
that says Ottawa is considering abandoning the dilapidated prime minister’s residence altogether and building a new one from scratch.
“The Prime Minister,” he said, “has had one mansion where his food is cooked, another mansion where he lives, a third mansion on a lake, and that wasn’t enough for him, so he built a second lakefront mansion with our money at Harrington Lake. He’s been so focused on building mansions for himself that he’s forgotten to build homes for hard-working Canadians.”
So no, Mr. Trudeau hasn’t been building mansions for himself; it’s more fair to say the opposite – that he has been letting 24 Sussex Drive rot into the ground. Mr. Poilievre, who lives the “mansion” lifestyle rent-free at Stornoway, the official residence of the leader of the opposition, knows this.
One big problem with fixing up 24 Sussex Drive is the cost, which the NCC estimates will be close to $40-million. That doesn’t include new security requirements, which have become more complicated.
