The committee has directed Global Affairs Canada to provide a list of properties, including addresses and prices, that were viewed or considered for purchase for the consul general’s official residence in New York
A House of Commons committee will look into the Liberal government’s recent purchase of a $9-million condo in Manhattan for its consul general to New York.
The official residence in Manhattan will be used for diplomatic activities including networking receptions, official briefings and hospitality events such as discussions with business and political leaders, the department says. The committee directed Global Affairs Canada to provide a list of properties, including addresses and prices, that were viewed or considered for purchase as the consul general’s residence.
The deed shows it was listed for more than US$6.6 million and sold last month to “His Majesty the King in right of Canada.”
