Philpott to stop using high-end vehicles from limo company owned by Liberal
OTTAWA — Health Minister Jane Philpott will stop using a pricey limousine service owned by a Liberal supporter after Conservatives complained about a $1,700 bill for transportation in the Greater Toronto Area.
Philpott said in a statement Wednesday the price tag was “too high” and “inappropriate.”
“I have already taken steps to prevent this from occurring in the future,” she said.
While Philpott’s office said the minister won’t use the limo service again, it stopped short of saying she would repay the money, noting the transportation was for legitimate business.
