The university says it would be difficult to repay the money and that doing so could violate tax law
The university maintains there was nothing unusual about the donation it received and that it came during a different time in Canada-China relations.
The university said only $550,000 of the promised donation was ever received, and only four scholarships, each worth $10,000, were awarded.Article content “The idea is to reallocate it to support research projects, student scholarships, bursaries, mobility of students and professors under this broad theme of democracy and international relations,” he said, adding that specifics will be decided in the coming weeks and months. He said the university has attempted to contact the two donors to inform them of the change of plans but hasn’t heard back.
The university said the Trudeau Foundation became involved after Guy Lefebvre, then vice-rector of international affairs, asked the foundation for the right to use Trudeau’s name and image.
