Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau testified during Thursday's virtual House of Commons Standing Committee on Finance (FINA) regarding the WE Charity affair. His testimony was 90 minutes, although Conservative MP and FINA Vice-Chair Pierre Poilievre put forth a motion earlier in the week requesting the prime minister testify for no less than three hours.
In an exchange with NDP MP Charlie Angus, Trudeau claimed that when he received the information WE Charity was being recommended by public service to deliver the student grant program, he "pushed back" and added that he was not presented with other options of charities to carry out the program by public service.
The prime minister's Chief of Staff Katie Telford testified as well.
Telford stated that like Trudeau, she "regrets" that he didn't recuse himself when selecting WE Charity to carry out the student grant program, and added that it "was not a choice between different organizations to deliver the program; this was a choice between going forward with the program or not."
