The Ontario government has sold a $28.9 million private jet back to Bombardier, less than a week after its purchase spurred public outcry.

Premier Doug Ford made the announcement at an unrelated event Wednesday.

“We sold the plane for the same price, right back to Bombardier and said ‘OK, you take it back,’” Ford said.

“We gave it back to Bombardier at the exact same price, no one lost anything.”
