Liberal Unaccountability - Let Us Count the Ways

It is no secret the handouts being doled out by the Liberals have provided much needed financial resources to a broad base of Canadians.  However, it is clear that the focus has been on younger (potenially future Liberal) voters with so many dollars thrown at them, for such a demographic that lacks financial obligations, has existing shelter and resources.  Meanwhile, seniors are still waiting on their $300 cheque, the demographic that has paid an entire career's worth of taxes and beyond into their retirements!

This blatant favouritism I cannot believe more Canadians are not discussing this.  With Sophie as "an Ambassador" and Justin admittedly having done work for WE previously, the conflicts around this are endless.

"...“When the Federal Government ‘outsources’ the delivery of a grant program it effectively does an end run around transparency and Parliament as NGO’s are not subject to the same federal ATIP information requirements . This is deeply concerning,” Conservative MP Dan Albas tweeted.

“$900 Million. Journalists cannot use ATIP. MPs cannot review this spending at committee. The Auditor General will not be able to audit it. Trudeau Liberals will not even disclose the contract details. So much is wrong here,” he added on social media Friday.."
