Sheila's back

Well, Sheila Fraser's done it again. This time she has the former lieutenant-governor of Quebec in her crosshairs:

The audit showed that $239,000 was spent by the former Lieutenant-Governor to cover personal expenses or for activities that could not be linked to her official duties. In addition, $129,000 was claimed from the federal government for accommodation and meal expenses already covered by the Government of Quebec. Finally, $343,200 intended to cover expenses incurred in the provincial capital was instead considered by the former Lieutenant-Governor to be supplementary pay.

Regarding that second sentence: if that allegation is true, wouldn't that mean she outright stole $129,000? We need an explanation.

Way to go, Madame Thibault. (That rhymes!) This is exactly the kind of publicity we needed associated with the monarchy in Quebec.
