MPs Joke After Storm Cuts Committee Chair's Internet During Trudeau Testimony
Oh, the perils of working from home.
There was a moment of levity during the prime minister’s testimony before the House of Commons finance committee Thursday after Liberal MP Wayne Easter said a storm cut his internet connection.
The Prince Edward Island MP is chair of the committee. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made an appearance as a witness to answer questions about the WE Charity controversy.
It fell into brief disarray after Easter was dropped from the video call.
