that all donations, including foreign donations, to the foundation, which received a $125 million government grant in 2002, exploded after Justin Trudeau won the Liberal leadership. As the Post noted, “a significant proportion of the charity’s donors, directors and members have ties to companies and organizations that are actively lobbying the federal government.”
It also turns out, according to Fournier’s testimony, that the Trudeau Foundation had a role in handling the donor records in such a way that they appeared Canadian rather than Chinese.
