While Ontario residents remain under a provincial lockdown order until January 23, Senator Vernon White is unwinding in Finland.
White, a former Police Chief of Ottawa who was appointed to the Senate in 2012 by Conservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper, confirmed to PressProgress that he flew to Europe two days after Doug Ford ordered a lockdown on Boxing Day.
“I can confirm that I have travelled to Finland,” White told PressProgress in a statement issued at 2:58 AM Ottawa time.
