WE Charity scandal: Canadian MPs set to question Kielburger brothers on WE Charity operations

The WE Charity’s founders, brothers Craig and Marc Kielburger, are set to appear before the House of Commons Ethics Committee.

Both the Commons ethics committee and its procedure and House affairs committee have invited the Kielburger brothers to testify as part of their ongoing scrutiny of a federal agreement to have WE manage a now-cancelled student services grant program, despite the organization’s close ties to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his family.

Ethics commissioner Mario Dion is investigating the involvement of Trudeau and former finance minister Bill Morneau, who also has family ties to WE, in choosing the organization for the task. Both have apologized for not recusing themselves from the decision.

As David Akin reports, opposition MPs say they still don’t have a complete picture between the ties of WE and the prime minister’s family.
