Initiated by: Carol Burman from Victoria, British Columbia
Whereas:
As Canada enters a building phase, Prime Minister Mark Carney asked for cost saving ideas
Since 1950, Stornoway, 541 Acacia Avenue, Ottawa, Ontario, has been the official residence of Canada’s Leader of the Official Opposition
The main building has 19 main rooms, approximately 9,500 square feet (883 meters)
Stornoway is served by a staff of three: a chef, chauffeur, and household administrator
The National Capital Commission manages this property, which is closed to the public
Canada is the only western democracy to fund a residence for the Official Opposition
This cost saving petition is deliberately silent on implementation.
