While many food bank shelves lay bare due to the ever growing demand, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Indo-Pacific trip racked up a food bill of over $223,000 in airplane catering alone.
Trudeau took a trip to Singapore last fall to meet with business leaders and the president of Indonesia before attending a G20 summit in India.
The total expense of the trip was nearly $2 million, but it was the catering that took the biggest bite.
Initially said to be around $180,000, a response to an order paper question in the House of Commons later revealed the final airplane catering bill to be $223,234.
The Royal Canadian Air Force CC-150 carried as many as 72 passengers during one leg of its journey over the six-day trip. On one flight alone, the catering bill was $85,000, or at least $1180.55 per person, assuming that bill corresponded with the 72-passenger flight.
Other flights had just 37 passengers on board at one time.
Trudeau and his entourage were served a selection of pan fried beef tenderloin with port wine sauce and beef brisket with mashed parsley potatoes with truffle oil.
However, if one wasn’t in the mood for beef, they could enjoy the braised lamb shanks with steamed broccoli and boiled baby potatoes.
