Trudeau, Morneau and WE: What you need to know
from 10/3: Canada Covered · host Postmedia
What started as a controversy about ties between the prime minister’s family and a prominent Canadian charity, and a 900 million dollar government contract has turned into an ethics investigation involving Justin Trudeau and one of his senior ministers, as well as more scrutiny on the operations of WE charity. The brewing scandal came to a head last week in key testimony before a parliamentary committee. National Post political reporter Chris Nardi joins Dave to talk about what we learned from the finance committee last week, how there are still conflicting accounts about how this deal came together, and whether the PM has been able to shed any light on the matter.
