Did I mention Ottawa?

-------- Your tax dollars at work ---------

On March 23, 2006 Mr. Anderson had lunch at O'Carroll's in Halifax at a cost of $32.91, flew to Ottawa and checked into the Minto Suites Hotel in Ottawa at a cost of $189.75, charged SWSDA for his regular daily meal allowance, before heading down Somerset street to wind up the day at Mamma Teresa's, a well known restaurant in Ottawa described in the following manner ....

" Mamma Teresa's is known internationally for its good food and warm, friendly atmosphere. Prime Ministers, Premiers, celebrities, and others who appreciate a pleasant dining experience, have all graced Mamma's tables." ..... and now Frank Anderson has too ....
Cost.... $176.34 plus a handwritten tip for $35.00 for a total cost of $211.34.

For lunch the next day he billed SWSDA for his daily meal allowance, had lunch at "Prime 360" an upscale Steak House located in the Hotel at a further meal cost of $59.27 plus a handwritten tip of $12.00 for a total cost of $71.27 before heading back to Yarmouth.

Another busy day lobbying in Ottawa...... Food and drinks for Mr. Anderson over 24 hours .... enough to feed more than two families for a week!

Impact on development in Southwest Nova Scotia..... Priceless!
