Murray Wood: Who's hot... and who's not
Every Friday, Murray Wood takes a look at the week's news and decides who's hot, and who's not. This week's list include...
8:30 – Prime Minister Trudeau and his chief of staff Katie Telford testified before the House of Commons Finance Committee Thursday, and Trudeau admitted he was aware of the possible appearance of a conflict when WE Charity was chosen to oversee a $900M program to pay volunteers, but still didn’t recuse himself. Meanwhile, the meeting turned into a circus at times as a storm knocked out the chair’s power and many raised points of order. Matt Gurney, columnist with the National Post, says it’s hard to believe a lot of minds were changed by the testimony, but the scandal is still costing Trudeau some support. “It was bad, but then again, we deserve it,” Gurney wrote. “We elected these people.”
