An internal audit of outgoing Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer's expenses has found he spent $18,000 a year of party money on private parochial school for four of his children.

Last Updated Thursday, April 2, 2020 8:15PM EDT

“The party's audit found no red flags in the party's accounting system and noted that all the expenses that were paid out were documented fully,” Hann said in an email Thursday.The audit had been ordered last fall. The party allocates a budget to the leader meant to cover political expenses that wouldn't be paid by the House of Commons but are part of the job, and also to potentially defray some of the leader's general expenses.

As leader of the Opposition, Scheer made about $264,000 a year. That was before the automatic salary increase that took effect Wednesday, but he is promising to donate the difference to charity. He also receives a $2,000 car allowance. Hann said the clothing the Scheer family expensed was used for campaign appearances and other party events.

He just looks and comes across as a cheap skate, never really has had a job, WTF, thank god (oh my god what a Catholic thumper) just put him as a back bencher and leave him there. Or better still send him back to Saskatchewan, he’s since 2004 an embarrassment to the province, OMG

Social leach we as tax payers pay for,,these benefits have to stop , let’s be in this together ,time to earn your money mr

Shocked I am. Shocked. 😂

Where is the Trudeau audit?

Yup , he wants back to work and expand his expense account. Meanwhile people are coughing up lungs and dying , quarantined , keeping their social distances ,no money to pay rent, mortgage, trying to save their elderly folks from catching the virus and so much more.

There are so many more important issues....why this now? Please with Trudeau and all of his breaches surely you can find something real to publish!

Who really cares about this problem, it should be handle by the party.

Once again your Liberal paymasters have you CTV and others in their back pocket. Guess that blatant hypocrisy is just working fine for your organization. So much for respecting journalism.

AndrewScheer yeah you wanna talk about “wasteful liberals” huh cdnpoli

Holy fuck. A minivan... stop the press'. Are you presstitutes going to ask for an audit of Trudeau? Regarding his numbered corporations or his offshore accounts? cdnpoli

Did they find the Trump bobblehead he won on ebay as well? scheercraziness

Can you imaigne if we'd made him premier. He'd have had his buddies line up at the coffers for handouts just like kenney just did ... $8 billion to his pals in O&G. sheerlunacy

Speechless? Andrew Scheer's as of 2019, his salary as the official Opposition leader comes to $259,000. The guy that had to take the bus everywhere. cdnpoli CPC_HQ

well I suppose we need a new leader of the PC party..someone to lead us to federal victory.. come forward all prospective leaders.. no skeletons in the closet please.

Not the sneak

All legitimate expenses approved by the party before hand, let's compare trudeaus expenses shall we

I guess Capt Crayon must feeling some heat this week, so here comes CTV to deflect for him...how many times has he been up in front of ethics committee? AndrewScheer expenses all approved by CPC_HQ

Dick

fuckoffScheer

That’s why he’s millionaires

Well oh fuk this is OLD news What are ya board of reporting current relevant news. Ya know reliable news on covid19 This is just petty sht This isn’t a high school news paper so grow up and get with the truth today Try looking into the CanadianPM financial truth

Where’s Sophie? Get one of your investigative reporters to find out if Liberal party or the taxpayers are paying for separation lawyers for her and JustinTrudeau

Why don’t you ask harder questions? Like where does Trudeau’s money come from and go? What about SNC corruptions? How about Trudeau, Blair and Monreau failing to submit conflict of interest reports on time or even at all? TrudeauMustGo

Now go dig up some real news. Try looking on the other side of the aisle, or have you got a permanent kink in your neck.

Corrupt trugrope views ctv.

Again CTV, stop just stop, right now who the hell cares,

Scheer has CROOK written all over his face.

Who gives a rats ass

Liberanos RealCriminals TrudeauMustGo

So the matter has been closed. Wouldn't some of the Cons members want to know who paid the money. I would want to know who is screwing who.

Where’s the Trudeau audit? Can’t have all those private jets and vacations and alcohol bills be made public now huh?

Wonderful that he has the character to submit those expenses for scrutiny. Unlike say those with French chalets and travel expenses for entourages and friends to private islands, you know those pesky expenses investigators have to uncover! Bravo Scheer

Canada’s own Donald Trump.

Meanwhile Trudeau spends BILLIONS of TAXPAYER dollars trying to appease his own ego with a seat on the UN security council. Get fucked .

Meanwhile justin have 2 nannies his wife has 36 assistants? A mansion renovated for 38 million? What else is he hiding?

We should all be united and condemn Liberals or Conservatives who are miss using OUR money Money we need to survive this horrible pandemic Be VERY angry and make your voice heard to those politician They are there to represent us the working class not to steal our money.

Bet he wishes he was a foundation fund baby.

Just imagine what he would have done with his hands on the public purse.... 😖

we're in the middle of a part demic with a PM who is basically just going to put us all out n debt for the rest of our lives and our children and loves etc, and the story you think we want to hear about, is approved spending?

Nice reporting job CTV. After 4 plus years of Trudeau scandals this is the best you can come up with. Grow some balls and ask Trudeau why is holed up 3 weeks in self isolation. Ask him if he has an electronic ankle bracelet on. Ask hard questions.

CTVJLaidlaw Hey CTV News. Do you really believe that's all the internal audit revealed. Lisa Raitt mentioned something about some Access to Information you can put a request in for. Can you follow-up on that please?

Minivan ? Come on at least get a sports car!

Hey AndrewScheer, care to tell the truth about this? And while you're at it, tell us how you are no longer an American citizen. Oh, and we would require actual documentation as proof. ScheerStupidity

CTV news reporters you people suck

Minivan? 🤨

This Mothafucka looks like YOGI BEAR... AndrewScheer

Who cares

No wonder they have been crying about the party being broke for a few months now

RCMP and Revenue Canada need to investigate Scheer!

So that's how Conservatives balance budgets..

This is why you check resume references... if not, you get a liar and a theif

Wow really! Really! You know Trudeau will already be lining pockets with out tax dollars and you consider this news during a pandemic. Oh right he lined your pockets and stole your integrity.

I guess needs to stay in JustinTrudeau ‘s corner or else they won’t get the extra $$$ he hands out to his favourite Media outlets...

What an idiot. Should have went for French villas, escorts, drugs and private vacations. That’s how the Libs roll. Better luck next time.

all approved by the party so it’s all good!! But Trudeau liberals have miss placed billons of tax payers money! But it’s all good right!!

Big deal...The audit found his expenses - including $18,000 per year in private school tuition fees - were properly recorded by the Conservative party.

Yes this is the news we need to hear about at this time. Why don’t you Blame him and Harper for this Virus already.

This man would have never embarrassed Canada like Justin has.

This is an issue between the Conservative Party and Scheer. As a taxpayer, I don’t care. If I was a member of the party I might care, or maybe not. It would depend.

Seriously? Maybe turn your head to Trudeau. Millions and millions of waste.

Really 🤣🤣

😂 whoever keeps tweeting this is really dumb

Idiot.

Imagine depending on CTV as your sole news source....🤪😵😱😬🤮.

the only House he should be in is a courthouse, abuse of privilege & fraud

OMG next

He has never had a real job in his life. One can assume that if runs out of taxpayer money he'll head straight for the campaign funds.

HawkingDead wow he's owning the libs

'Andrew Scheer billed the Conservative party for his kids' private Catholic school' That's it. Pack it in folks.

What a schmuck

Internal audit of Scheer’s expenses finds he spent money on private school, clothes, a minivanControversy around his spending was one the factors in Scheer’s announcement in December that he’d resign as leader as soon as his replacement was chosen globepolitics Clearly written by someone who’s trying to deflect from Trudeau’s corruption and law breaking. Not to mention costing thousands of Canadian lives by still not stopping the flights from infected areas. To this day there is no screening at airports. globepolitics So basically as his time as leader Scheer's personal expenses were about 10% of the total cost of a single Trudeau vacation, such as Justin's ethics law breaking trip to the Aga Khans island. Which cost Canadian taxpayers hundreds of thousands of $$$. globepolitics $18,000 per year for five kids going to a Catholic school? Clothes and a minivan? That's it? Canada definitely made the wrong choice in October...
