Episode 15 - The Kielburgers, Feel Bad Capitalists (Part One): Peoplekind of Canada Peoplekind Politics

    • Politics

Taylor and Matthew donate their time to appraise the ‘charitable acts’ of Craig and Marc Kielburger, the founders of WE Charity and ME to WE. We cover their lives from privileged wunderkinds to (allegedly) corrupt charity icons. We talk forbidden love with a donkey; the financial shenanigans that saw their charity (WE Charity) giving money to their for-profit business (ME to WE); allegations of bullying and racism at WE Charity; lying to children who believe they are raising money to build a school abroad; demon children and libel suits; and a PR team obsessed with stamping out any and all criticism (we look forward to the lawsuit, Kielburgers!) Join us as we stare into the abyss, recounting the rise and fall of the Kielburgers before the WE Scandal of 2020.
