So were these trendy coats handed out to needy children?The parkas were purchased by the Ministry of Children and Youth Services
Or to office staff?
At least they are supporting a canadian company instead of buying coats from Indonesia
edit: I was giving them the benefit of a doubt thinking maybe some lucky kids got some much needed warm jackets. I was wrong.
http://www.torontosun.com/2017/05/04...-goose-jacketsThe Ontario Ministry of Children and Youth Services spent $53,948 buying staff at youth correctional facilities luxury brand Canada Goose parkas to keep them warm on the job.
Progressive Conservative MPP Sylvia Jones had made repeated tries to get an explanation for the expense that turned up in the 2015-16 public accounts.
Jones said she’d heard a rumour that the coats were purchased for staff, and a ministry spokesman later confirmed to the Toronto Sun that was the case.
uh huhAli said the Canada Goose jackets were purchased in bulk to save money after receiving no other “qualified bids” in an open, competitive bidding process.

“Buying these luxury jackets which on average cost $1000 is indefensible.
They took bids? Imagine how much it cost for some office shlep to put together the RFQ (request for Quotation). It would have been cheaper by far to just go out in January to a few stores in a mall and buy coats on sale. I'm pretty sure It could have been done for 20% of the price.

this is a good point
and I'm betting it wasn't one office schlep....one competent schlep woulda nixxed Canada Goose outta the gate on perception alone.....and Gov't doesn't work that way....it's a group-think to ensure the taxpayer gets truly fuct
they probably had a team of 12 with multiple meetings....to review the RFQ and debate....to regroup and sign off....to hear each presentation...then to regroup and analyse...then to regroup and vote etc etc
they probably burned through 4x the cost of the expensive coats just making the fucking decision alone
^Stop it. You guys are making me sick.
