In any case Doc's hope to make this all about the oil is most likely based on the kind of BS that spins from a minor fact and tries to make it the whole story.
I did hear some oil guy did donate 10 grand and there are lawyers for natural resource companies involved but where the campaign comes from is more complex.
I've heard in a few places that the billboard campaign started with some Saskatchewan political guys.
$1:
Although WestWatch does not have its own website and its social media channels are a little hazy about who is really behind it, the group is run by an organization called the Canada Growth Council.
CGC describes itself as a “group of motivated individuals that are simply fed up with anti-growth propaganda, foreign-funded activist groups and the absence of strong voices that advocate on behalf of free-enterprise and prosperity in Canada.”
Corporate filings show CGC’s three board members all have long and deep ties to the governing Saskatchewan Party:
The filings also show CGC’s registered address is located at Kanuka Thuringer LLP, a Regina-based law firm that represents natural resource companies and is also a major Saskatchewan Party donor too — the law firm gave $23,200.00 to Brad Wall’s party in the 2016 election year alone.
“We are targeting ridings in the upcoming federal election,” CGC told PressProgress, adding that they are attacking any “MP or candidate” who “does not support (Western) industries, our vision or has shown they’d rather support Justin Trudeau’s agenda than support their own constituents.”
The group said its funding “comes from people and groups” who “support Western Canada,” but declined to name names until after the election, noting “all donations and expenses will be disclosed according to federal legislation.”
