Finding a new official residence for the prime minister would be his “last” priority, should Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre win the next election
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre says renovating or building a new official residence for the prime minister will be at the bottom of his to-do list should his party form government after the next federal election.that says, citing sources, that the government is leaning toward giving up on the idea of restoring 24 Sussex Drive to continue as the prime minister’s official residence.
The building, which backs onto the Ottawa River, has remained vacant since Prime Minister Justin Trudeau opted not to move in to the home he grew up in as the son of prime minister Pierre Trudeau. The Conservative Leader said Tuesday that the prime minister’s residence does not need to be large enough to host large receptions – noting that the parliamentary precinct already has rooms where special events or private meetings can be held.
