Ontario MPPs Face Hotel Expense Fallout | Canada News

Ontario Premier Doug Ford demands all MPPs who charged hotel expenses for downtown Toronto stays repay every penny, following the resignation of Tourism Minister Stan Cho, who claimed over $16K despite living in Toronto. Other PC MPPs — Hardeep Grewal ($27K), Charmaine Williams ($15.8K), and Nina Tangri ($18.9K) — also spent heavily on hotels while residing in Mississauga, 35-45 km away. Ford called the spending “unacceptable,” but hasn’t confirmed if others repaid. Liberal interim leader John Fraser urges resignations, while NDP leader Marit Stiles demands receipts and accountability. Ford praised Cho for stepping down but hasn’t signaled consequences for others beyond repayment, sparking fresh debate over taxpayer money and political ethics.
