OTTAWA — Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly accused the Conservatives of not supporting Canada’s diplomatic presence in the United States, as they grilled her over the purchase of a $9-million condo for one of its posts.
Joly was called to testify at a parliamentary committee on Tuesday about the government’s decision to buy a new residence for Canada’s consul general in New York on a posh slice of Manhattan real estate known as Billionaires’ Row.
