Landmark Report Reveals Conflict of Interest in Canadian Lobbying
A new report by FMinus, an American accountability monitor, exposes a major conflict of interest in Canadian lobbying, where environmental groups and major polluters share the same lobbyists.
Major Canadian environmental organizations and civil society groups are using lobbyists who also represent big polluters, potentially undermining the nation's climate action efforts.
“As the climate crisis gets worse for Canadians, there’s a hidden cause,”
said James Browning, founder and executive director of FMinus, in an interview with DeSmog.
- The report was prepared in conjunction with Environmental Defence and re•generation, a youth climate advocacy organization.
- The study reveals that Big Oil's lobbying playbook is taking precedence over Canada's climate action.
