Spending $200,000 on a European junket to visit brothels is a sickening use of taxpayer dollars:
"We're talking about five federal members on a junket touring European whorehouses at a cost of $40,000 each," Kormos said yesterday. "I can take anyone of them down to Bridge St. in Niagara Falls and get them laid for less than $50."
Kormos was mocking a plan by Ottawa politicians to travel to Britain, the Netherlands, Sweden and Nevada to study how those jurisdictions deal with the sex trade.
The five MPs, members of a federal justice subcommittee reviewing prostitution laws, have asked for funds to visit with law enforcement agencies, counsellors and brothel owners abroad.
"This is absolutely obscene that any of these members ... would even contemplate doing this," Kormos said. "It is an embarrassment, it's outrageous, it's a disgrace. They should be ashamed of themselves, every single one of them."
Just another day in Trudeaupia! Ho-hum.
