it’s pretty tough to paint a picture of influence-peddling.
It really isn’t, if you have any familiarity with how corrupt charities can be in how they operate and how they get run. The WE Charity scandal wasn’t even more than one Prime Minister ago, and not to defend it (or Trudeau) but frankly, it was far from being as bad as actual charity corruption can get
I was not intending to imply anything even close to that specific, my comment was meant in a general sense, but at this point in my personal journey of attempting to understand the world we live in, it so happens that I don’t trust any particular human in any position of power or authority, so I don’t see why the governor general should get a free pass.
If you want me to go ahead imply that there is a possibility they and the charity they set up are corrupt, I’d be happy to stand behind that implication, with the caveat that I don’t have any evidence of that at all, and I don’t have any intention of ever attempting to find or provide any. It is a totally baseless position, because I’m totally comfortable assuming all people in positions of power are corrupt by default. That is my personal position. I am not forcing anyone else to do the same. Feel free to take my opinion for every cent it’s worth; I’m not going to charge you for it.

That’s a helluva thing to imply about a charity set up by the GG.

Well, that being the case, I guess that means this plan is exactly as bad as any other possibility.
