Alberta’s premier believes the public is ready to move on from questions surrounding her controversial trip to South Africa.
Alison Redford apologized and had said she was shocked to learn it cost $45,000 to send her and an aide to the funeral of former President Nelson Mandela, but stopped short of paying the money back.
It comes after revelations that her executive assistance billed the province more than $9,000 to stay at one of Edmonton’s ritziest hotels since last spring.
Redford says she’ll focus on opening new business markets for the province and growing the economy.
