Ontario Buys $28.9M Private Jet for Premier Doug Ford

On April 17, 2026, the Ontario government confirmed it had spent $28.9 million on a pre-owned 2016 Bombardier Challenger 650 jet for Premier Doug Ford's use. The province cited federal-provincial meetings and US tariff travel. Operating costs were not publicly disclosed at the time of announcement. NDP, Liberal, and Canadian Taxpayers Federation criticism was immediate; civic group NoJetsTO linked the purchase to the government's concurrent Billy Bishop Airport expansion plan under Bill 5.
