渥太华 - 加拿大道德专员周五进行调查,关于加拿大总理贾斯汀·特鲁多(Justin Trudeau)有家庭关系的慈善机构赢得政府合同一事。特鲁多将面临他第三次利益冲突调查。
道德事务专员马里奥·迪翁(Mario Dion)的办公室表示,将研究选择加拿大慈善机构(WE Charity Canada)管理一项9亿加元(6.645亿美元)的学生资助计划,特鲁多是否违反了禁止政客利用政权促进个人利益的规定。
Trudeau和他的妻子Sophie Gregoire Trudeau定期参加WE慈善活动,而Gregoire Trudeau则在该慈善机构的网站上主持播客。
加拿大主要反对党,保守党已要求进行调查。
WE Charity不再管理该赠款计划,该计划将为从事志愿工作的大专学生提供最高5,000加元的资助。之所以引入它,是因为冠状病毒大流行使许多学生难以或不可能获得暑期工作。
WE Charity在其网站上的声明中说,该计划自宣布以来一直“充满争议”,为了该计划的好处,最好让政府接管管理。
政府表示,该慈善机构不会从其参与中获利。特鲁多(Trudeau)周一表示,WE慈善组织是加拿大唯一具有“宏伟计划执行能力”的非盈利组织。
道德事务专员还将调查该声明是否表明Trudeau 给予了 WE Charity比其他全国性慈善机构优惠的待遇。
特鲁多(Trudeau)曾两次因违反利益冲突规则而受到该国道德专员的制裁。第一次是在2017年,因为一年前在阿迦汗的私人岛屿上接受假期,第二次是在去年,以寻求影响一家公司的法律诉讼。
