Rona Ambrose resigned in July as MP for Sturgeon River-Parkland. She was replaced (a) in an October 23 byelection by a 26 year-old Proud Boy, Dane Lloyd, and (b) as leader of the Conservative Party of Canada by a guy with dimples.

"In charge were then-public works minister Rona Ambrose (now interim Conservative leader) and Tony Clement, former president of the treasury board. Neither has expressed any remorse for the fiasco. The Conservatives eliminated 700 payroll jobs in dozens of departments, mainly in Ottawa, and created..."  -The Globe and Mail, 26 Feb 2017 

Rona Ambrose and her boyfriend had many Stornoway expenses for a temp job. Stornoway shouldn't be a residence for interim leaders. Then yachting with billionaire Murray Edwards from Jan 3-14 (and writing ethics commissioner about it on Jan 12), while freaking out about Justin Trudeau's vacation. 

Murray Edwards moved to London in 2016. His business interests include the Calgary Flames, Canadian Natural Resources Ltd., Magellan Aerospace Corp., Imperial Metals Corp., and Resorts of the Canadian Rockies.

spybots & fire sales

The Canadian government is selling embassies, e.g., Paris 35/37 avenue Montaigne, 5 rue de Constantine (UNESCO). It sold One Grosvenor Square last month, where John Baird vacationed with six friends Christmas 2012.

Macdonald House

These do not include Canadian embassies that now are shared with UK embassies or the Buffalo N.Y. consulate that first was renovated ($1.5m) and had a 10-year lease.

In other news, Canada set up spy posts for the National Security Agency/ Central Security Service (NSA/CSS), the 'main producer and manager of signals intelligence (SIGINT)' for the United States of America; PM Harper allowed Six Eyes foreignersNSA to spy at a billion dollar G20 summit in Toronto, 2010. And what about that Muskoka and infrastructure fund to reduce border congestion.

In other fire sale news: selling a Crown corporation (AECL) for $12.3 million to SNC-Lavalin, without a value-for-money audit.

open letter to rona ambrose@encanada

Yo.

I would have written the other environment minister (desert storm scud stud, Afghanistan reporter, Arthur Kent, oops that's his brother, Peter Kent), but since you babbled about Kyoto, novels, HappyOil™ (2006-07) and got this timbits tarball rolling and P. Kent babbles about finishing it or is it the 'engine' of the North American economy! (oops, that's the new provincial Minister of Energy, Ken Hughes), and now another artist is not very happy.

wow, multi-billion dollar buttons! - Ambrose, Clement, MacKay

And besides, you are Canada's new limousine winner! *$40,000* That Tony Clement is funny. I liked what he said about MP limos. "We work long hours for Encana Canadians."

Weird. Three departments refused to provide details on drivers' overtime citing privacy reasons: Environment Canada, Public Safety Canada and the Privy Council Office.
