Exactly, why buy from a local mom and pop when you can buy from a Brazilian owned mega chain?

Haha!   I wouldn’t either!   Their donuts are garbage.

Let's face it, those are some bourgie donuts.  $4 each if you buy a dozen.  Depends who paid for them, Justin, or taxpayers, or the Liberal party donors?  Is there a meal/snack allowance for such meetings?  How much is it?  Are such retreats paid for by the gov?  Why didn't they have the retreat near Toronto where a ton of Liberal MP's already live and don't have to pay for hotels and flights?  Is donut spelled "doughnut" or "donut"?

Hopefully it's JT just being a nice guy and getting his peeps the best local donuts money can buy.

I saw doghnutgate trending on twitter today and I didn't know if I should be more embarrassed about being a Canadian, or proud, since this is as our top news while our neighbours impeach their head of state for corruption and bribery.

Their twitter profile was pretty responsive today.  The $47 price tag for a dozen donuts* is for specialty donuts, not regular priced ones.  Plus, JT pre-ordered and got a discount.

Who really cares about the rest.  It's so petty, it makes me embarrassed for the people who think it's a big deal.

This stuff is making me change my mind towards PR.

If we can't prioritize issues, then we have to raise the threshold of consensus to 50% to make changes.

It's Winnipeg in January, a decent doughnut shouldn't be too much. It isn't like they went to the Four Seasons in Wailea.
