The Ontario government has sold a $28.9 million private jet back to Bombardier, less than a week after its purchase spurred public outcry.
Premier Doug Ford made the announcement at an unrelated event Wednesday.
"We sold the plane for the same price, right back to Bombardier and said 'OK, you take it back,'" Ford said.
"We gave it back to Bombardier at the exact same price, no one lost anything."

Well, I'm hoping that you lost some face, Mr. Ford.

Pretty sure at least someone lost the commission on their $28.9 million sale.

He's talking like Trump more and more, just a barrage of BS, even chickening out like this.

If it's any consolation to you, Premier Ford, you have, "like all the provinces' Premiers," a prestigious job. I voted for you to keep the plane.

Despite the other province's premiers not having private planes?
