Conservative finance critic Pierre Poilievre laid out the plan today amid growing pressure on Trudeau and Liberal cabinet ministers to explain how the sole-sourced deal announced late last month came to be. Ethics Commissioner Mario Dion is already investigating whether Trudeau violated the Conflict of Interest Act over the WE contract, but Poilievre says he wants the prime minister to explain himself to Canadians by appearing at the finance committee.

Simple facts, Trudeau’s mother received 250,000 from WE, his wife 1400, his brother 32,000. Simply GIVING public money (ignoring the protocol of the tender process) to an organization that pays your relatives is clearly a Conflict of Interest Conflict of interest under the act.

You know he’s too much a liar to be of any real use. Everything is not his fault. He’s never going to take responsibility.

Good, this government needs to be accountable,I signed a conflict of interest for my job I'm sure the PM& minister did the same,no one is above the law,they already have 2 guilty findings in breaking the code of ethics,maybe they used the missing infrastructure money for WE

Not sure if he can make it. Isn’t he in house arrest for crimes against humanity?

You gotta love Skippy. Says he is running for leader of the Cons and forgets he has a family. Dumb as rocks.

STFU con-clowns! There are more pressing issues concerning Canadians! Like losing jobs losing their homes not able to pay the rent not able to buy food. Keep this up and you clowns will never forms government in 🇨🇦.

Who cares!

Cabinet confidence can hear him already

globepolitics I can't help but feel like there are more important things to deal with at the current moment.

At this point any of the parties not doing so are guilty of putting their partisan agendas ahead of the good of the country. There is no way to justify not doing so and still retain any credibility they may have had

Are they prepared for airing all their ties with WE? Are they prepared for a backlash from Canadians who are more concerned about jobs and their health? Let the Ethics Comissioner do his job and the MPs get on with the issues that concern their constituents. StopTheCircus”.

Pierre poilievre, known as Skippy throughout his career as a professional politician, cheated his way into parliament. When will the CPC force him to testify at committee? When will the CPC expel Skippy from caucus?

So... I usually vote Conservative, but come on. Can we not focus on more important things, like getting Covid-19 under control and kick starting our economy so Canadians can get back to work and avoid losing their homes?
