    COMMUNIQUÉ Volume 27, Issue 30 July 28, 2020 WE Scandal Highlights the PM’s Ethical Incoherence Rod Taylor Leader, CHP Canada There are limits to public credulity and tolerance for blatantly reckless behaviour with public funds. The failed attempt by Prime Minister Trudeau to funnel $43.5 million of taxpayer money to his friends at the WE Charity Foundation fell outside those limits. The optics were bad. The amounts were staggering. The lies uttered to cover it up were appalling. This was not simply a Prime Minister’s error in judgment. This was a campaign to divert public funds into behind-the- scenes partisan grooming. The idea of passing nearly a billion dollars ($912 million, to be exact) into the hands of a charity connected with the Liberal brand raises questions on its face. Investigators have also discovered that the since- aborted contract to administer $912 million was not even made directly with WE Charity but with the WE Charity Foundation, a separate (sort of) charity that has only been registered for just over a year. It has no significant assets and no proven track record; it appears the reason for using a separate charity was to minimize liability risk for We Charity.1 The fact that the WE Charity Foundation would have pocketed about $43.5 million for distributing the rest of the money makes one blink hard, especially when Canada already has an army of civil servants who have proven themselves quite capable of handing out taxpayers’ money. Side-stories, new angles and “footnotes-of-interest” seem to be sprouting up all along the trail.

RThe school doesn’t have a caf- eteria or an auditorium. Students don’t have a gym or sports facilities, though students can still participate in athletic activities at a neighbor- ing park. The school building itself on Glenwood Avenue is fairly dat- ed; it certainly isn’t what someone would call a 21st-century, state-of- the-art facility. Yet despite all real or perceived — or esthetic — shortcomings, stu- dents at Raleigh Charter are per- forming better than most students in the state. Supporters of school choice say it’s that choice that empowers par- ents to pick the best place for their children to attend school.

  • State of North Carolina in the General Court of Justice Superior Court Division County of Wake 18 Cvs 014001
    STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA IN THE GENERAL COURT OF JUSTICE SUPERIOR COURT DIVISION COUNTY OF WAKE 18 CVS 014001 COMMON CAUSE, et al., Plaintiffs, PLAINTIFFS’ PRETRIAL v. MEMORANDUM DAVID LEWIS, IN HIS OFFICIAL CAPACITY AS SENIOR CHAIRMAN OF THE HOUSE SELECT COMMITTEE ON REDISTRICTING, et al., Defendants. INTRODUCTION Partisan gerrymandering is an existential threat to democracy in North Carolina. Republicans in the North Carolina General Assembly have egregiously rigged the state legislative district lines to guarantee that their party will control both the North Carolina House of Representatives and the North Carolina Senate regardless of how the people of North Carolina vote. This attack on representative democracy and North Carolinians’ voting rights is wrong. It violates the North Carolina Constitution. And only the courts of this State can bring it to an end. In 2011, following a national movement by the Republican Party to entrench itself in power through control over redistricting, Legislative Defendants’ mapmaker manipulated district boundaries with surgical precision to maximize the political advantage of Republican voters and minimize the representational rights of Democratic voters. And it worked: in the 2012, 2014, and 2016 elections, Republicans won veto-proof super-majorities in both chambers of the General Assembly. Then, in 2017, after federal courts stuck down some of the 2011 districts as illegal racial gerrymanders, Republicans redoubled their efforts to gerrymander the district lines on partisan grounds. Evidence from the mapmaker’s own files shows his laser-like focus on drawing new districts in 2017 to maximize the political advantage of Republicans. And again, it worked. The votes that North Carolinians cast in elections should matter, but Legislative Defendants’ mapmaker produced maps where their votes don’t matter.
