The problem with the WE Charity thing is that most people didn't really understand the implications. When I talked with some friends/coworkers about it they were like "just politicians arguing about tax dollars, what else is new". That's the perception the average Canadian seemed to have.

This is different however. People who barely pay attention to politics are throwing the word "treason" around.

Three weeks ago:

> "Dong is an outstanding member of our team and suggestions that he is somehow not loyal to Canada should not be entertained," Trudeau told a news conference in Mississauga

Then the Trudeau Liberals proceeded to filibuster the committee looking into the initial Chinese funding allegations.

I'm not surprised this story came out. I'm just wondering what the next one will be.
