Jean-Daniel Lafond asked to send her to a hotel, source says
The Queen of Canada technically owns the Governor General’s residence in Ottawa, so it’s more than a bit strange that Michaelle Jean’s husband asked that Elizabeth II stay in a hotel instead during last week’s royal visit.
Jean-Daniel Lafond asked that the Queen not stay at the 9,500 square-meter royal residence, a source told the Toronto Sun. The GG’s office did not comment. The Queen stayed at Rideau Hall.
