Wasn't the issue with Nenshi's trip was paid for by a company that does business with the city? I don't think it's particularly comparable.

This whole thing is small potatoes though compared to the rest of Harper's spending problems. (15% increase in total government spending in his first three years, and that was before the recession!)
