OTTAWA — Canada spent $9 million last month to buy a luxury condo in Manhattan for the official residence for its consul general in New York but the federal government is refusing to say what is being done with the old property.
Why does Canada need a consul general in New York City? It’s not capital of any government. It’'s not very far from Canada, so Canadians in need of consular services could probably find someplace more convenient. The whole thing seems like a way to grift the Canadian taxpayers into swanky Manhattan digs for some well-connected asshole.
