WE scandal: Trudeau spars with opposition leaders over cancelled contract
Conservative Party Leader Andrew Scheer and the leaders of other Canadian opposition parties clashed with the Canadian prime minister in Parliament on Tuesday over a cancelled $900-million contract with WE charity that has embroiled his government in controversy.
Scheer said Trudeau’s use of the ongoing novel coronavirus pandemic as “an excuse” to go ahead with the sole-sourced contract to WE Charity was “gross and disgusting" and said the controversy was about more than the prime minister and finance minister failing to recuse themselves from the decision to award the now-cancelled contract to the charity created by Marc and Craig Kielburger.
Bloc Quebecois Leader Yves-Francois Blanchet, meanwhile, called on the prime minister to step aside and hand the reigns of the government to Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland and questioned whether the prime minister is able to focus on the work of governing as a result of the scandal.
Justin Trudeau finally had to defend his government’s efforts to support students, as NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh questioned whether the government actually intended to help students, or whether Trudeau was primarily concerned with “helping his wealthy friends.”
