Soon after, a 5 p.m. press release confirmed the reporting. WE Charity would wind up its Canadian operations, sell off Toronto real estate worth millions and focus its efforts on international projects. Oh, and the <strong>Kielburger brothers<\/strong> who built the empire would walk away from the organization they co-founded 25 years ago. They talked it all out with CTV News.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The rise and fall of WE:<\/strong>\u00a0In the latest issue of <em>Maclean\u2019s<\/em>,\u00a0four\u00a0reporters traced the charity\u2019s long arc, from its inspiring origin story in 1995 all the way to its tumultuous 2020. The 7,000-word longread starts with a young <strong>Craig Kielburger<\/strong> demanding a meeting with former prime minister Jean Chr\u00e9tien and urging action on child poverty. Years later, the Kielburgers shared a stage with a beaming\u2014and newly elected\u2014Prime Minister <strong>Justin Trudeau<\/strong>. The WE story is, in part, a tale of two PMs.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The contrast between the two images is stark. In the former, a young boy rails against the vague assurances of one Canadian prime minister, demanding he back up his empathetic signals with action; in the latter, that boy-turned-seasoned-charity-mogul embraces the platitudes of another PM, seemingly secure in his belief that this is the best way to change the world.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Erin O\u2019Toole<\/strong> presided over his <strong>first caucus meeting<\/strong>\u00a0as Tory leader in the Sir John A. Macdonald Building across the street from Parliament Hill. O\u2019Toole positioned his team as an \u201cengaged, ethical and compassionate\u201d\u00a0government-in-waiting. The pool report sent to the Parliamentary Press Gallery noted the pandemic-era table accessories included a \u201cvery prominent container of Clorox wipes in front of O\u2019Toole and a <strong>\u201cCostco-sized vat of hand sanitizer\u201d<\/strong> next to deputy leader <strong>Candice Bergen<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Public Safety Minister\u00a0<strong>Bill Blair<\/strong> took one on the chin after a government-<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ointed panel that monitored Correctional Service Canada\u2019s new \u201cstructured intervention units\u201d\u2014the replacements for a solitary confinement regime found unconstitutional by the courts\u2014fell apart after its panellists received no usable data and saw their terms expire.<\/p>\n<p>Blair might have\u00a0<em>thought<\/em> the <strong>bad headlines<\/strong> would go away after he promised the data. But Justin Ling, who broke the news of the panel\u2019s possible demise in\u00a0<em>Vice<\/em>, writes in\u00a0<em>Maclean\u2019s<\/em> that <strong>Anthony Doob<\/strong>, the panel chair who\u2019s not sure he\u2019ll stick around, still has no data. The correctional service is in the midst of replacing outdated software that tracks every second of inmates\u2019 lives. But Doob says old tech is no excuse. Maybe, he told Ling, they <strong>just don\u2019t have the data<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThey do lots of research themselves using their old system to get data. And, as I\u2019ve said many times, if they truly cannot get the data for the panel, that means that they don\u2019t know what is happening, in a systematic way, in their institutions.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>In the shadows:<\/strong>\u00a0A recently published poll commissioned by the <strong>Communications Security Establishment<\/strong>\u2014Canada\u2019s electronic spy agency\u2014found that very few Canadians could name it without being prompted. The poll, conducted by Phoenix SPI at a cost of $84,978.57, asked respondents if they could name a federal agency charged with \u201cintercepting and analyzing foreign communications and helping protect the government\u2019s computer networks\u201d\u2014and <strong>81 per cent<\/strong> couldn\u2019t name one. Eleven per cent offered up the Canadian Security Intelligence Service. Just <strong>three per cent named CSE<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>As the Liberals prepare their Throne Speech vision to \u201c<strong>build back better<\/strong>,\u201d economic policy wonks in various ministers\u2019 offices will undoubtedly listen closely to Bank of Canada Governor <strong>Tiff Macklem\u2019s speech<\/strong>\u00a0today at 12:30 p.m. The new governor will speak virtually to the Canadian Chamber of Commerce about the \u201c<strong>uneven effects of COVID-19<\/strong> on different sectors and people in the economy.\u201d Watch the speech here.<\/p>\n<p>Liberals represent 40 rural ridings across Canada. That\u2019s half the number held by the Tories, but still a little over one-quarter of all rural districts. That means the opinion of\u00a0<strong>Kody Blois<\/strong>, the Nova Scotia MP who chairs the Liberal rural caucus,\u00a0should hold at least <em>some<\/em> sway. In an op-ed Blois circulated on Throne Speech priorities, he took aim at <strong>stubborn interprovincial trade<\/strong>: \u201cIt should not be easier for wine producers in Nova Scotia\u2019s Annapolis Valley to get a bottle of our signature Tidal Bay across the Atlantic Ocean than across a provincial border to another Canadian province,\u201d writes Blois. \u201cIt\u2019s 2020, and that needs to change.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Every so often, a newly appointed judge\u2019s biography shows a little life.
