Baby, Brunch, Book Blurb Oiled Charity’s Ties to Ex-Minister Bloomberg 2 hrs ago Natalie Obiko Pearson
(Bloomberg) When Canada’s finance ministry earmarked hundreds of millions for a pandemic aid program to be run by WE Charity last year, scrutiny immediately fell on the cozy ties between the philanthropic juggernaut and one of the country’s most powerful politicians.
As a political firestorm ensued, WE’s telegenic founders, Craig and Marc Kielburger, denied leveraging influence to win the no-bid C$544 million ($449 million) contract. They testified to lawmakers that their organization wasn’t set to benefit financially from the program. And they certainly didn’t have a personal relationship with then-Finance Minister Bill Morneau, they said.

Former Finance minister Bill Morneau broke ethics law by failing to recuse himself from discussions about awarding WE Charity the Canada Student Service Grant (CSSG), but Prime Minister Justin Trudeau did not, found Ethics Commissioner Mario Dion.
The commissioner’s findings were published Thursday, the result of an investigation requested by four MPs on July 10, after the Trudeau government outsourced the $500-million CSSG a program to pay students for volunteering to WE Charity, an organization with which the Trudeau and Morneau families had close financial ties for years.
