You're not wrong, but I think you're missing the forest for the trees here. What they did was legally permitted, however the poster above was right, they tell us to avoid non essential travel while taking sunny vacations for themselves.

It adds insult to injury that they all pre-recorded Christmas messages, and then they all said, well, in no way was my Christmas message intended to mislead anyone as to my previously planned vacation, and now that I have returned home, I pinky promise that I won't break the rules again.

Meanwhile, the rest of us who cannot afford to self isolate for two weeks, who cannot afford to leave the country, who cannot afford a Christmas vacation, are sequestered at home where our ever so competent leaders decided that we cannot see our own families without facing fines up to $100,000!

If COVID was really as much of a concern as the politicians have lead us to believe, do you think any of them would be going anywhere? Who is more at risk, politicians on a crowded airliner, or mom and dad coming over for Christmas dinner with their son and his wife?

Whether or not it is technically permitted is besides the point. Their actions are extremely hypocritical and display their utter disdain toward to the common man. Rules for thee but not for me.

Its no big deal that a few politicians exposed themselves to thousands of people on flights and at their resorts in a foreign country, getting a sun tan while the Calgary police arrest a young man for playing hockey outside. Let them eat cake!
