Landmark New Report Reveals Conflict of Interest in Canadian Lobbying
A recent study by FMinus found that Canadian lobbyists represent both major polluters and environmental groups, potentially hindering the nation's climate action.
Major Canadian environmental organizations and civil society groups are using lobbyists who also work with big polluters, according to the report published by FMinus, an American accountability monitor.
“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.
