On this bonus midweek show Gavin and Andrew discuss the latest Liberal scandal. No, we’re not talking about photos of Justin not wearing his wedding band. We discuss WE and ME TO WE, and the scam where apparently every Trudeau family member, and half of cabinet has ties to, or has received money from, WE charity. The same charity that just back out of a 900 million dollar contract to administer the Canada Student Service Grant program after the unethical relationship was uncovered.

‘I’m sincerely sorry’: Trudeau apologizes for not recusing himself from WE contract talks

Trudeau, Morneau apologize for not recusing themselves from WE decision
“I feel like it’s Groundhog Day. We’ve seen so many instances where the prime minister gets caught… seems outraged that anyone could question him, and then as the scandal deepens then he apologizes,” said NDP MP and ethics critic Charlie Angus in an interview on CTV News Channel. He said what is most concerning is that no one around Trudeau seemed to try to stop him from getting involved given his close personal ties to the organization.
Angus said the controversy should have never happened and if the proper standards and protocols were in place, it wouldn’t have. He called it “one of the stupidest scandals in Canadian history.”
