WE Charity founders Craig and Marc Kielburger now say they will testify before the House of Commons ethics committee after previously refusing to answer questions from what they described as a "partisan" committee.
Guy Giorno, a lawyer advising WE Charity, told CBC News Network's Power & Politics today that both men will appear before the committee with legal counsel and will not answer questions that could form a part of a RCMP or Canada Revenue Agency investigation.
The move came after the committee unanimously passed a motion earlier today to compel the men behind WE Charity to appear before MPs to explain their role in the botched summer student grants program and answer questions about allegations of donor fraud.
