For parliamentary democracy to remain robust, transparent, and accountable to the people, we must often rely on those from within to expose the rot from within.

Believing that the system will govern itself is Foley, as it was proposed by several people linked to the Munk School of Public Policy in Toronto in an editorial in The Globe and Mail last year.

Unquestioning loyalty to a minister or your department is not delivering value for citizens, nor does it all hold the Westminster parliamentary system on which our governance is based.

Publisher Dean Baxendale speaks truth to power on why we are currently enjoying a commission in Ottawa to understand foreign influence on our parliamentary democratic system.

it’s time to wake up Canada and recognize Dr. Tele Torie States, or at war with the promise of a parliamentary democratic system, free speech, and free debate.

The claim that public servants must remain silent, even when witnessing actions that jeopardize public safety, national security, or contravene the law, fundamentally misinterprets the duty of public servants and

Join us Wednesday for the mostcimpoetan spy thriller ever… but it's real life..

Ben Rogers says.

"The Mosaic Effect is dynamite, blowing wide-open the truth about a political and criminal collaboration between the Chinese Communist Party, Hong Kong's Triads and wealthy business tycoons that poses a direct and grave threat to Canada and its freedoms."

When we decided to publish What We Lost our mission was to cut through the headline-grabbing controversies and offer a sober perspective on what really happened during the #WECharityScandal, why it happened, who was responsible, and who really paid the price. Now, as a No. 1 national bestseller, we know that Canadians are starting to pull back the curtain and read the facts behind the headlines. Order your copy and uncover the facts today - we know you'll be surprised about what you discover. www.whatwelost.com

We are obsessed with uncovering the facts and making sure the truth comes to light 💡 That's why we published the National best-seller What We Lost by former WE board member Tawfiq Rangwala. It tells the detailed untold story behind the ‘We Charity Scandal’ and exposes readers to shocking, previously unknown information that will change the way Canadians see the scandal, politics and the media at-large. Buy your copy today and read what was left out of the conversation. https://www.whatwelost.com

Thank you for the honest book review of What We Lost, Mark Bourrie 📚 “It’s a solid piece of reporting. Any journalist who covered the “WE Charity Scandal” will, once they overcome their embarrassment, realize the great stories that were missed. Members of the public will finally have a full account of what really happened, and can decide who to blame for the destruction of the country’s largest home-grown charity. Politicians and public servants can read it to see how to do a better job with communications, and to remind themselves that the slightest bit of “gotcha” material can be used to destroy careers and reputations.” Read the full story with the link in our bio

What We Lost is a critical assessment, including a hard look at WE charity conduct and mistakes. This is NOT a blind defence of the charity. The author, Tawfiq Rangwalagoes on a journey to figure out if he missed something as a former WE Chairty board member. We encourage all Canadians to read this book so they can fully review all of the information so they can make a fair and balanced opinion.

What We Lost - Trailer - The Story of the Attack on the We Charity in Canada

What We Lost - Trailer - The Story of the Attack on the We Charity in Canada In 2020, WE Charity was riding high. As it geared up to celebrate its 25th anniversary, the organization, which started in the basement of twelve-year-old Craig Kielburger’s Toronto home, had grown into a global non-profit recognized for its work helping vulnerable communities gain access to clean water, schools, and income opportunities, and for service-learning programs that empowered youth to volunteer in their communities and around the world. But then came a pandemic, a political scandal, and a media pile-on not often seen in Canada. Before the year was out, WE Charity had shut its doors in Canada for good. How did so much go so wrong so quickly? What WE Lost goes behind the scenes of the so-called ‘WE Charity Scandal’ to tell the real story that Canadians never got to hear. It’s a story of a manufactured scandal designed for partisan gain. Of a media landscape defined more by clicks and likes than facts and truth. Of self-appointed experts ever searching for the spotlight. It’s a story people think they know—but they don’t. From the author: “This book is an invitation to see what my investigation revealed. My goal is to cut through the noise and fog and address common misconceptions by offering up facts and context. I take you inside the rooms where it happened and reveal what went on behind the scenes … Let me also be clear about what this book is not. It is not a blind defence of WE Charity or the Kielburgers. They made mistakes, there is blame to be shared, and I do not shy away from revealing the missteps and taking stock.” – Tawfiq Rangwala Buy the book here https://www.whatwelost.com/

We couldn't agree more with Susanne Boyce more. Once you start What We Lost, you won't be able to stop. What will you discover when you read What We Lost? You will finally hear countless voices that were ignored and excluded throughout the scandal: students, teachers, donors, and underprivileged people in countries like Kenya who were key beneficiaries of WE Charity’s work. Hear their stories, and then decide for yourself how you really feel about the WE Charity Scandal and its costs. Maybe you'll have a change of heart too. Order your copy at www.whatwelost.com

There's just something about holding your own book in your hands for the first time 👏👏 We can't wait for you to finally read #WhatWeLost. Debuting May 5th 2022.⁠ ⁠ Pre-order your copy today and read the ~whole~ story about the so-called #WECharityScandal. Order now: https://tinyurl.com/mt7s8wn8

On February 3rd in Vancouver and in the 4th in Vancouver citizens will hold peaceful protests at Chinese consulates all over the Canada and the world. Join the peaceful demonstrations and when and if you watch our athletes let’s think of the slave labour and genocide taking place inside China.
