What We Lost: Inside the Attack on Canada's Largest Children's CharityThe Road AheadJustin Trudeau won another election, albeit with another minority government, and Charlie Angus and Pierre Poilievre held onto their seats, with the latter making a bid the Conservative leadership. Jesse Brown was named one of Toronto Life’s Top 50 most influential Torontonians, and a dozen journalists earned accolades for their coverage of the CSSG controversy. Everyone seemed to benefit from the controversy except the millions of youth in Canada who benefited from WE Charity. What does this mean for them? And what’s next for the organization? What does this say about the future of Canada?2022-09-1440 min
What We Lost: Inside the Attack on Canada's Largest Children's CharityThe Fifth EstateNo media organization was more enthusiastic in its unwarranted crusade against WE Charity than the CBC, specifically Fifth Estate journalists Harvey Cashore and Mark Kelley. Their reporting escalated from recycling well-trodden issues around the CSSG to them soon breaking laws in Kenya, and they ignored any evidence that would prove their hypothesis wrong. They had a story in mind, and they were going to tell it no matter how many donors pointed out the flaws in their research, or youth and employees spoke about their positive experiences or forensic audits were produced.2022-09-142h 03
What We Lost: Inside the Attack on Canada's Largest Children's CharityAn International AffairIt wasn’t just politicians and pundits looking to benefit from the CSSG controversy. Reed Cowan, a journalist and former WE Charity donor decided to step into the fray for his 15 seconds of fame. Cowan soon sought to extort the charity for more than $40 million, for his silence. WE Charity was proud of its work in developing countries and had nothing to hide. Beneficiaries of their work and forensic auditors concurred. But those voices were ignored by the media for more salacious headlines. What was the real story before the headlines?2022-09-141h 30
What We Lost: Inside the Attack on Canada's Largest Children's CharityManufactured OutrageWE Charity started to wind down in Canada, but that didn’t mean that politicians and the media were done with trying to tear down its reputation. Politicians like Charlie Angus and Pierre Poilievre were again taking every opportunity to score political points, and they cared little about the collateral damage. Conservatives called on their army of supporters to harass owners of a speaker’s bureau, and Angus bullied a man suffering from a brain aneurysm. And of course, the Kielburgers were called to testify for another unprecedented three hours. Was anything really accomplished from this?2022-09-1459 min
What We Lost: Inside the Attack on Canada's Largest Children's CharityClosing DoorsBill Morneau resigned his role as Finance Minister, and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau prorogued Parliament, leaving WE Charity to twist in the wind. As a result of the partisan politics and often inaccurate media reporting, WE Charity faced a difficult and devastating decision – closing its doors in Canada. Politicians and pundits like Pierre Poilievre and Jesse Brown claimed it was nothing more than a publicity stunt. But what was really behind the board’s decision to close the charity in Canada?2022-09-1400 min
What We Lost: Inside the Attack on Canada's Largest Children's CharityPolitical RoadkillMarc and Craig Kielburger’s lives had become a nightmare. The organization they had built from nothing was clinging to survival, they were working 18-hour days to keep their heads above water, and their families were receiving almost daily death threats. In the midst of all this, they were called to testify before the parliamentary committee looking into the CSSG controversy. Instead of answering lingering questions about the program, they faced four hours of relentless attacks from MPs looking for nothing more than to score political points.2022-09-1447 min
What We Lost: Inside the Attack on Canada's Largest Children's CharityA Question of GovernanceMichelle Douglas had resigned as chair WE Charity’s board of directors in March 2020, a month before the organization was recruited to help deliver the CSSG. She had no knowledge of the program or the details of how it came to be. But her untimely resignation and public statements made her a star witness for partisan politicians, like Charlie Angus and Pierre Poilievre, who were not really interested in hearing the truth. But what is the true story behind her resignation? And how did the charity’s board really operate?2022-09-141h 09
What We Lost: Inside the Attack on Canada's Largest Children's CharityHigh and DryBy mid-July, during testimony before a parliamentary committee, politicians and bureaucrats all confirmed what WE Charity had been saying from the beginning – the CSSG was not initiated by the charity but by the government. There was no scheme to bail out the organization. But what should have been a dignified and sober-minded pursuit of the truth on behalf of the Canadian people quickly devolved into a partisan circus, with politicians like Charlie Angus and Pierre Poilievre taking the lead.2022-09-1436 min
What We Lost: Inside the Attack on Canada's Largest Children's CharityBIPOC ReckoningCOVID was not the only force causing global upheaval across the spring and summer of 2020. In May 2020, George Floyd was murdered by a white police officer, and ignited Black Lives Matter protests around the world. Like many other organizations around the world, WE Charity was forced to re-examine its own conduct and policies. Tawfiq Rangwala takes you inside the process he helped lead as a former board member.2022-09-1338 min
What We Lost: Inside the Attack on Canada's Largest Children's CharityOpen Floodgates At the height of the CSSG controversy, media eagerly fed on the opinions of politicians like Charlie Angus and Pierre Poilievre or pundits like Kate Bahen and Jesse Brown, while at the same time failing to seek out the perspectives of those with firsthand experience of the organization, like students and teachers. In this episode, we get to the truth about WE’s corporate partnerships and WE Day, and how both benefited millions of youth and educators around the world.2022-09-1351 min
What We Lost: Inside the Attack on Canada's Largest Children's CharityPiling OnConservative MP Pierre Poilievre and NDP MP Charlie Angus were two of the loudest voices to leverage WE Charity in attempt to take down the Trudeau government. But inside the echo chamber, they had some help from pundits like Charity Intelligence’s Kate Bahen, lawyer Mark Blumberg and Canadaland publisher Jesse Brown.

What We Lost: Inside the Attack on Canada's Largest Children's CharityThe Storm After the CalmIn this episode, Martin Luther King III narrates how conservative Pierre Poilievre and the NDP’s Charlie Angus appear to have very little in common at first glance. But that did not stop them from playing an outsized role in fuelling misperceptions about the charity and its operations. Instead of celebrating the success of the CCSG launch – with 35,000 youth applicants – media were immediately critical of the CSSG program from the onset. Martin Luther King III continues to narrate the What WE Lost podcast. This is the real story behind some of the most critical headlines.2022-09-121h 31
What We Lost: Inside the Attack on Canada's Largest Children's CharityMission CreepIt was supposed to be a $40-million program supporting 20,000 students, but at the urging of government bureaucrats, the CSSG ballooned in size to support 100,000 students with a maximum price tag of $543 million. How did it balloon in size in a matter of weeks? Why did WE Charity Foundation really sign the contribution agreement? What government misstep almost made WE Charity pull out of the program before it even launched? Martin Luther King III goes further into what really happened in the What WE Lost podcast.

What We Lost: Inside the Attack on Canada's Largest Children's CharityA Call to ServeMartin Luther King III goes further into the controversy in this episode of the What WE Lost Podcast. The CSSG program was not a 'government bail out' for the organization as politicians like Charlie Angus and Pierre Poilievre would have you believe. Instead, it started with government bureaucrats looking for a solution and believing WE Charity, with its 25-year track record, was the solution.

What We Lost: Inside the Attack on Canada's Largest Children's CharityGood Enough is Not Good Enough“Whatever the criticism, one thing is clear: the attack on WE was really, in many ways, an attack on the character and credibility of its co-founders, Craig and Marc Kielburger.” Martin Luther King III reads The What WE Lost podcast.

November Music - de interviewsHawar Tawfiq - November Music 2021: het Bosch RequiemComponist (en violist) Hawar Tawfiq schrijft dit jaar het Bosch Requiem - sinds een aantal jaren de traditionele opening van November Music. 'Requiem des Fleurs et des Nuages' heet het werk, en die titel is ontleend aan een van de gedichten die de tekst vormen die gezongen wordt door bariton Thomas Oliemans, waarin aan bloemen en wolken gerefereerd wordt als de kleine dingen van grote schoonheid die we in ons leven kunnen - en zouden moeten! - realiseren. Hawar draagt zijn Requiem op aan zijn compositiedocent Alexander Hrisanide, die hem leerde op die manier naar de wereld te kijken.2021-11-0517 min
