They sent a letter to Alexander Jeglic as questions continue to surface around Ottawa’s decision to have the WE organization manage the Canada Student Service Grant

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau participates in a news conference outside Rideau Cottage in Ottawa, June 29, 2020.The federal Conservatives have asked Canada’s procurement watchdog to review the circumstances around several sole-sourced contracts between the Liberal government and WE Charity, including its administration of a $900-million federal program for students.

Trudeau has said WE will be paid only to cover its costs. He has also said the non-partisan public service concluded the organization was the only group in Canada with the capacity to run the program and reach the many thousands of young people who might sign up for it. The Tories write in their letter to Jeglic that “the Liberal government’s pattern of providing untendered and sole-sourced contracts to an organization with close personal ties to the prime minister, who is head of the government, is deeply concerning to many Canadians.

The letter to Jeglic follows emergence of a video earlier this week, obtained by The Canadian Press, that showed WE co-founder Marc Kielburger telling youth leaders last month the Prime Minister’s Office reached out to the organization about the student grant program one day after it was first announced on April 22.

Follow the money!

Good Put them where they belong

The volunteers are expected to volunteer in Liberal election campaigns. Stealing taxpayers $ and the $ is of course not part of Liberal campaign expenses. Part of the hidden Liberal agenda. Systemic Liberal corruption. Add the “teachers” who will “help”.

As they should

Tories Urge Watchdog To Review Government Contracts With WE CharityConservatives also want the decision to outsource the Canada Student Service Grant program examined. 'Gossip' in the Cabbagetown neighborhood is that WE is being investigated by CRA. They bought lots of houses on Carlton Street, found a new H.O. at Parliament and Queen. Sold all houses on Carlton Street. Made huge profits. They owned the house attached to our's, worst landlords. WE is a wonderful organization. What are the tories going on about.I am sick of all their bull crap. Where are journalists? Too much cash from Justin?
