'WE charity received no preferential treatment; not from me, not from anyone else.' PM Trudeau delivers his opening remarks before questioning from MPs begins. You can follow it live here:

OTTAWA -- Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is testifying in a rare parliamentary committee appearance, where he’s set to face a barrage of questions from MPs about his role in the scandal sparked when the Liberals awarded WE Charity a deal to administer a $912 million student volunteer grant program.

After an hour of testimony and taking questions—despite a request for Trudeau to stay for three hours—Telford will appear at 4:15 p.m. ET for two hours to discuss what conflict of interest concerns, if any, the Prime Minister’s Office had in outsourcing this massive and since-halted summer aid program.

In the month that has passed since the program was put on ice, revelation after revelation has kept the scandal alive. From the $43.

And if they don’t feel like they’ve gotten the full disclosure from Trudeau today, the Conservatives have already threatened to call him back in the months ahead.will have a series of questions for Trudeau Federal Ethics Commissioner Mario Dion has already launched investigations into possible conflict of interest code breaches by Morneau and Trudeau for not recusing themselves from the cabinet discussions about outsourcing the grant program to WE, given their close family ties.

Can we watch him walk the plank? I would be asking the dude if any of his known (arrested) pedo friends had anything to do with WE?

He has got to be the biggest crook I have ever heard of. Should be in jail.

Lot of dancing going on here

“Partnerships” and “exec files” files were taken out of We HQ Wednesday July 29, 2020 where they were headed?

Systemic corruption thriving under JustinTrudeau

He hasn't answered a question since he became prime minister, why would he answer them now?

He’s over his 10 minutes 5 minutes ago

Richard Nixon had better ethics than Justin Trudeau.

No questions will be answered , nothing will change ... another teachable moment for Canadians . Hopefully the realization that we're not citizens, just serfs .

JustinTrudeau resign.

Lol! A prepared statement as usual...expects us to believe he wasn’t involved in giving WE, who gave the Trudeau’s over half a million dollars WHILE ALL OTHER SPEAKERS GOT NOTHING...would even a good Liberal be dumb enough to believe that? Especially after TWO ETHICS CONVICTIONS?

Feds should be able to help injured workers groups. Those peaceful protesters nobody sees till a family member gets WSIB, instead of a right to a courtroom.

Fortunately it is easy not to believe anything he says.

ctvqp Is Trudeau allowed to do a commercial for himself for the majority of time he’s agreed to be questioned?

Have another drag

And the lies start.

Resign

Is there a Canadian version of impeachment?

Hey media, it's a 'scandal' when you figure out people did bad stuff. The purpose of this inquiry is to determine if bad stuff went on. It's not a scandal yet. Fuck.

It's Thursday. I have to vacuum, wash the floors, do laundry, weed the garden and prep dinner. Going to miss it. sorrynotsorry WECharity notascandal

He looks stoned and should stop that smart ass grin he has.

WE won't get any answers
