Canadian politician savors life in Costa Rica

Brian Pallister, the Progressive Conservative Leader in Manitoba, Canada is defending the amount of time he spent at his vacation home in Costa Rica, saying he wanted to protect the privacy of his wife and daughters.

CBC News reported on Thursday that Pallister has spent a total of 240 days either en route to or in Costa Rica since becoming a member of the Manitoba Legislature in 2012. That works out to roughly 18.2 per cent of his time.
