  • Governor-General's Spending to Be Probed Committee Will Examine Budget, Mandate
    Feb. 25, 2004. 01:00 AM Governor-General's spending to be probed Committee will examine budget, mandate Follows on public outrage over ballooning costs MARY GORDON OTTAWA BUREAU OTTAWA—A parliamentary committee is launching a study that will examine the mandate of the Governor-General. The government operations and estimates committee will review the spending of Adrienne Clarkson's office and examine the over-all purpose of having a Governor-General's office in Canada. Committee chair and Liberal MP Paul Szabo said there was consensus among committee members that the matter was worth studying, particularly in light of public concern about the office's ballooning costs. "There seems to be some questions that have been raised in the public," the member for Mississauga South said. "Why do we have a Governor- General? What is the mandate? What benefit do we get? How much does it cost to have this?" This month, the Star revealed that Clarkson's circumpolar tour, in which she was accompanied by prominent Canadians such as author Jane Urquhart and filmmaker Denys Arcand, cost $5.3 million. The government projected the trip would cost about $4.5 million. The foreign affairs department, which was responsible for most of the cost, has cancelled a second tour. The Governor-General is the Queen's representative in Canada. The committee will also review the budget and estimates of government departments that spend money in support of the Governor-General's office, such as foreign affairs. NDP MP Pat Martin, whose motion sparked the study, said the trip's inflated cost and questionable purpose points to the latitude allowed in the vice-regal office, which should be reined in, he said.
