Blacklock’s Reporter—a reporter-owned subscription news service—has uncovered that Canada’s finance department spent $170,000 (CA$212,234)on the cover for its 2017 budget plan, a book handed out largely to nonprofits, bureaucrats, and journalists.

The document outlines the government’s spending plan for the coming fiscal year. It is released in print and in digital format but the digital version only has a plain text cover.
