“I am a Canadian, free to speak without fear, free to worship in my own way, free to stand for what I think right, free to oppose what I believe wrong, or free to choose those who shall govern my country. This heritage of freedom I pledge to uphold for myself and all mankind.” ~~ John G. Diefenbaker

SNC-Lavalin is facing a laundry list of criminal actions at home and in foreign dealings

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, with former
Attorney General Jody Wilson-Raybould

FEBRUARY 11th:   

SNC-Lavalin Lobbying 

I wondered how often SNC-Lavalin has lobbied the government, and who it lobbied. 

After a bit of digging on the Office of the Commissioner of Lobbying of Canada web site and learning how to use the search function, I found the following list of lobby efforts by SNC-Lavalin over the past 12 months.

There are nine instances of SNC lobbying someone in the Prime Minister’s Office or the Privy Council Office.  

The topic of Justice and Law Enforcement was raised on twenty-two occasions.

My conclusion is that the amount of smoke in the air suggests a fire is near. The hospital scandal in Quebec is the tip of a rather large iceberg. SNC-Lavalin is facing a laundry list of criminal actions at home and in foreign dealings. Senior officials are pleading guilty to charges to avoid having details revealed in court.

The PMO has its hands full denying that the full court lobbying press by SNC-Lavalin did not lead to some action to mitigate its public pillaring.

People in Kamloops, certainly people in positions of power, need to realize what Interior Health is doing”  ... CLICK HERE for the full story

One arrested at OneBC event at UVic that draws protesters (Times Colonist)

A would-be speaker was arrested under the Trespass Act after she arrived at the University of Victoria on Tuesday for an event intended to shed light on what the OneBC political party refers to as the “reconciliation industry.”  An officer at the scene initially said two people were arrested, after protesters scuffled with those trying to hold the unsanctioned event. Saanich police issued a statement later Tuesday saying only one person was arrested.  Police did not name the person who was arrested, but OneBC leader Dallas Brodie said it was Frances Widdowson, who was later released ...

Eby misled British Columbians about Cowichan appeal; court records show no stay was ever filed; Conservative leader John Rustad

Conservative Opposition Leader John Rustad says Premier David Eby has been caught misleading the public after court records confirmed the government never filed the stay of the Cowichan ruling the NDP repeatedly promised. “For four months, the Premier said the stay was being sought, the Attorney General claimed the application was underway, and the government told British Columbians that action was coming. The court record shows they did nothing,” said Rustad. “Not one stay, not one application, not one motion. They made promises to homeowners while the registry sat empty.” Premier Eby first promised on August 11, 2025, that a stay would be filed, then again in October, and twice in Question Period when pressured by the opposition. A review of court documents on Friday revealed that no stay has been filed. Rustad said the stay was the single legal measure that could pause the ruling and protect homeowners in Richmond and across the province while appeals move forward. By...
