Of course he'll pay using his credit card and then expense them.

I love how Iggy says he wont follow Harpers example because it would politicize the Olympics, I guess he really is just another fat cat Liberal at the trough

The minutia that gets dredged up and made important is bizarre when it comes to politics. It's ridicules that the leader of the host country would have to purchase tickets at all. Or expect him or her not to attend an event such as the Olympics when they're the host. Because this is Canada he should be attending a minimum of 4 events. Opening, closing and the men's and women's gold medal hockey games.

The Prime Minister of Canada, no matter who and what party, should not have to buy tickets to the Olympics.

That's right, the PM of the host country should not have to pay for anything.
But we all know our friendly media, they SURELY would have found a way to run a smear campaign about it.
