Illustrative photoA dinner expense from a British Columbia MP was approved in 2024. Nobody questioned it until an independent journalist posted about it on Instagram.
The expense was misfiled, and the case raises questions about oversight, Global News BC reported. The journalist, Isaac Peltz, put the claim under scrutiny with his recent post.
How expense claims are checked after approval is a question that applies to every MP, including those who represent Metro Vancouver ridings. In this case, the scrutiny came from outside the approval process and not from within it.
The approval dates to 2024, and the questions have emerged only now.
