What the SNC-Lavalin scandal reveals about corporate influence on Canadian democracy | CBC Radio

SNC-Lavalin didn't get the deferred prosecution agreement it wanted, but it did manage to change Canada's Criminal Code. Paul Wells says it's time to start watching this kind of lobbying more closely.

@JHein

this concentration and lack of dispersal will lead to the collapse of Big Business and Big Government when the systems collapses come.

Imagine the Next Far Right protest Convoy showing up to the abandoned, crumbling, rusting hulks of #Parliament with a faded for sale sign from a bankrupt REIT with a disconnected phone and archived f*book page. oh, and the same for #SNCLavalin overrun by dandelions and plantain. the future we need

the woke Elders of THE CABAL OF ARGUS
We will see

:wq

@jfmezei #SNCLavalin? Where have I heard that name before? Oh, yes: ā€œStep into the future of Ottawa's transit system with us.ā€ With unreliable schedules, buses that don’t show up, route cuts, fare increases, LRT breakdowns, unreliable trains that can't handle winter, panels coming loose & breaking b/c snow build up on vehicles, ice causing doors to freeze shut, brakes & bogies that hold the wheels, freeze up…….This is the #JimWatsonLegacy and SNC Lavalin-led Rideau Transit Group.
This is what I love about the #JimWatsonLegacy and #OCTranspo since they brought in the LRT. Because the schedules are totally unreliable, I have to leave at least two hours ahead of time just to make sure that I make it on time to my appointment because some buses don’t show up & sometimes the #LRT is delayed. And even then, I could still end up being late. Thank you #JimWatson and #SNCLavalin-ledRideauTransitGroup.

In a way, Butts' exit is the perfect reflection of #LPC ideals: When the crap hit the fan with #SNCLavalin and the Liberals had to find a leader to fall on his sword, they picked the policy guy, because the alternative would probably have been risking losing #JustinTrudeau himself.

Hurting the charismatic guy who gathers votes and donations is obviously more dangerous than losing the brains of the operation, to them.

And so we've had 4 years of a rudderless government.

#SNCLavalin is changing its name to #AtkinsRealis as it faces an "inflection point" in its 112-year history, according to CEO #IanEdwards, after a tumultuous decade for the #engineering giant.

The rebrand follows 11 years markedby trouble with the law, including the #Libya #corruption scandal that tarnished its reputation and ensnared the highest office of the #Canadian government, as well as lacklustre earnings at times.
