Other staff reported to have attended other games paid for by various companies.
The story originally published by the Globe and Mail (possibly paywalled, see alternate Edmonton Journal link).
When asked, Danielle Smith insisted that the trip was a private one, that all staff paid their own travel, and that (recently loosened) ethics regulations were followed.
A number of cabinet ministers and political staff also accepted tickets for games in Edmonton from MHCare Medical and its CEO Sam Mraiche, The Globe reported Thursday. The company was tied to Alberta’s importation of $75-million worth of children’s pain medication from Turkey. It is unknown how much MHCare made from that deal.
