That's a helluva thing to imply about a charity set up by the GG.

I was not intending to imply anything even close to that specific, my comment was meant in a general sense, but at this point in my personal journey of attempting to understand the world we live in, it so happens that I don't trust any particular human in any position of power or authority, so I don't see why the governor general should get a free pass.

If you want me to go ahead imply that there is a possibility they and the charity they set up are corrupt, I'd be happy to stand behind that implication, with the caveat that I don't have any evidence of that at all, and I don't have any intention of ever attempting to find or provide any. It is a totally baseless position, because I'm totally comfortable assuming all people in positions of power are corrupt by default. That is my personal position. I am not forcing anyone else to do the same. Feel free to take my opinion for every cent it's worth; I'm not going to charge you for it.

Well, that being the case, I guess that means this plan is exactly as bad as any other possibility.
