In the meantime, these guys should be embarrassed. Their total lack of shame is indicative of a culture of riding on the taxpayer dime.

McLachlin found no wrongdoing by MLA Reid, as travel receipts appeared in line despite allegations from a former constituency staff member that they were not.

McLachlin was critical of Plecas for acting more like an investigator than the top administrator of the Legislative Assembly.

“It is not entirely clear why the Speaker did not bring his concerns to the attention of the Clerk and the Sergeant-at-Arms forthwith, as one would expect of a supervisory officer.”

McLachlin found some allegations had no merit, including alleged double dipping travel expenses by MLA Linda Reid and an alleged attempt by James to cover it up. In addition, McLachlin was critical of Plecas’ methods in bringing forward the allegations, which led to the two men being escorted out of the Legislature building by police on Nov. 20, 2018.

Looks like McLachlin was very annoyed at Plecas's actions.
