$837 was spent to ship ice from Toronto to Niagara on the Lake; Hotel charges for Premier Dalton McGuinty’s and a staff of 15 amounted to $16,184 or just over $1,000 bucks per person; More than $6,000 was spent on rooms that went unused; The province incurred a $9,000 bill to have a landscaper repair damage to the grounds of Fort George, a Parks Canada site, following an event there; A whopping $56,837.56 was spent on golf shirts and other presents and promotional items.
