According to the Ottawa Sun, Tim Wasylko Stephen Harper's chef whose cooked for world leaders, MPs, and staffers alike has been served a pink slip and will be leaving the staff.

Wasylko was on board for five years as the Trudeaus have someone else in mind.

The former chef recalls one of his toughest days, being on the Hill on Oct. 22 cleaning out the kitchen to feed everyone on lockdown with lots of chili and ordering 60 pizzas. Harper thanked him graciously the next day for his hard work.

So what was it like feeding the family? As told to the Ottawa Sun, the Harpers had requested home-style meals instead of decadent, luxurious ones. Lots of meatloaf, taco nights, chicken pot-pie, and mashed potatoes.

Wasylko, a former Algonquin College instructor has he has been getting numerous offers since his depature.

We wish Wasylko the best on his future endeavours!
