Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has been cleared of any wrongdoing in the WE Charity affair by the federal ethics watchdog but opposition parties aren't willing to let the politically fraught controversy drop just yet.

Capping an extraordinary exchange of demands and counter-demands, a lawyer for WE Charity's co-founders agreed late on Thursday, March 11, 2021, that Craig and Marc Kielburger will appear on Monday, March 15, 2021, before the House of Commons ethics committee.

Marc and Craig Kielburger's appearance before the federal ethics committee next week is once again in doubt after a fresh spat broke out between the WE Charity co-founders and the MPs who want to grill them about the organization.

As the Trudeau government is forced to explain delays rolling out COVID-19 vaccines, some of the world's economic and health leaders are warning of catastrophic financial consequences if poorer countries are shortchanged on vaccinations.
