Benoit Dutrizac has submitted his petition to change the position of governor general and limit his costly privileges.
So be prepared to sign this document “against the princely lifestyle of Governor General Mary Simon.” The petition was approved by Bloc Québécois MP for Beauport-Limoilou, Julie Vignola. It will be online in five business days once the clerk approves it and translates it into English.
Benoit wanted to point out that Ms. Simon “spent $117,556 on professional dry cleaning of 13,831 blouses, 6,204 dresses and 3,918 comforters!”
“You are tired of the Governor General, her or all the others who preceded her, you are tired of seeing how money flows there while we are looking for it for schools, hospitals.” Sign the petition,” started Benoit Dutrizac !
The host calls for eight changes, including:
A taxable salary of $50,000 per year.
The sale of Rideau Hall and the distribution of the sale proceeds and saved maintenance costs to food banks.
A ban on all travel outside of Canada, with virtual meetings preferred.
“Let them know, Mary Simon, that we are tired of their futile and useless spending when there is a need everywhere in society,” Benoit told QUB Radio.
