At the heart of the dispute are comments made during an episode of the podcast that referenced a 1996 article about the WE Organization, then called Free the Children

A defamation lawsuit filed by the mother of Marc and Craig Kielburger against the Canada land podcast and its host will head to trial after an Ontario court rejected an application to have it thrown out, finding there is reason to believe the claim has “substantial merit.”

, according to the ruling. A defamation suit was filed with Craig Kielburger, not his mother, as the plaintiff. It ended in a settlement of close to $320,000 before going to trial. The judge specifically pointed to Brown’s sworn affidavit, in which the podcast host said: “e did not seek comment for the same reason why I didn’t seek comment from my own mother; neither of them were involved.”

Kielburger’s testimony about the emotional impact of the allegation, meanwhile, was “credible and impactful,” the judge said.
