A recent study by F-Minus exposes a significant conflict of interest in Canadian lobbying, where environmental groups and major polluters are represented by 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.
According to the report, Big Oil's lobbying playbook is taking precedence over Canada's climate action.
The report, published by F-Minus in conjunction with Environmental Defence and re•generation, highlights the need for greater transparency and accountability in lobbying practices.
Author's summary: Canadian lobbyists represent polluters and environmental groups simultaneously.
