FEDERAL LOBBYIST REGISTRY

Familiar names on the Federal Lobbyist Registry.

Know any of these people?

3191574 Nova Scotia Company, operating as The Highland Companies


Charles Harnick   

John Lowndes


The Baupost Group

Here is a link to the FEDERAL registration:

Then there is a new name:

Caroline Pinto (same address and firm though)
https://ocl-cal.gc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrrs/do/publicSummary?language=en_CA&regDec=655765&searchPage=publicBasicSearch&sMdKy=1324132820767
 
In fact the registry shows that Caroline Pinto & Charles Harnick met with Peter Kent, Minister of the Environment on November 7, 2011; Kellie Leitch, MPP Simcoe-Grey on September 15, 2011 (Caroline met with Kellie alone on October 22), and of course our own David Tilson on September 6, 2011.

Gee wonder what they talked about?

Perhaps David Tilson could enlighten us?

ADDITION TO THE POST:
Here is Kent's address, knock yourselves out.

  1. I think I just threw-up in my mouth a little bit.

  2. Gee, when I got Tilson's latest newsletter it talked about him going all out on behalf of his constituents over this quarry. He forgot to mention Caroline and Charlie. Hm...

  3. I wrote Peter Kent a while ago, BEGGING him to turn Federal attention towards the proposed mega travesty in Melancthon, and all I got from him was a form letter stating "It is NOT a Federal issue and we will not be getting involved." And yet he has time for Highland lobbyists?? Just when I think that the corruption couldn't smell worse, a politician adds another layer of stench...

  4. Send an early Christmas present people. Write you letters to Mr. Kent before Dec. 25th arrives! Minebuster has made on line shopping sooooo easy. I sent mine this morning and it really put me in the spirit...remember it is better to "give" then receive!
