Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is not the only cabinet member whose family is closely tied to WE Charity. One of Finance Minister Bill Morneau’s daughters currently works for WE, whereas another has spoken at “WE Day” events.
Friday, Morneau’s office confirmed information first published by online media outlet CANADALAND that Grace Acan, who joined Morneau’s family when they sponsored her travel to Canada from Northern Urganda, is currently working for WE as a contractual employee in an administrative role.
Despite his family’s ties to the Toronto-based organization, Morneau’s office says he did not recuse himself from the Trudeau cabinet’s decision to outsource a $900-million student volunteer grant to WE Charity.
