In Tense Ethics Hearing, Conservatives Say Brookfield Partnered With Vancouver Condo Developer 15 Days Before Carney’s Bailout
In a contentious ethics committee, Conservative MP Aaron Gunn moved Tuesday to summon Vancouver condo marketer Bob Rennie, federal Housing Minister Gregor Robertson, and major developers connected to Rennie’s fundraiser for Mark Carney as witnesses in an urgent parliamentary investigation of the Prime Minister’s multibillion-dollar British Columbia condo bailout. A second Conservative, Gabriel Hardy, then walked the committee through a timeline that ended on the most pointed suggestion of the hearing.
Hardy asserted that Brookfield — the asset-management giant Carney chaired before entering politics — became co-owner in a deal with Concert Properties, a developer holding dozens of condo projects in the Burnaby glut zone, fifteen days before the bailout was announced.
Gunn’s motion, put to the Standing Committee on Access to Information, Privacy and Ethics, calls for no fewer than six meetings this summer into what the governments have styled the Canada–British Columbia partnership on condo conversion — the June 18 plan to buy more than 2,200 unsold Vancouver-region condominiums with public funds.
The witness list reaches from the political architects to the industry’s commanding heights: former Vancouver mayor and now Carney housing minister Gregor Robertson; British Columbia Housing Minister Christine Boyle; Vancouver Mayor Ken Sim; Rennie, whom the motion identifies as the figure “often called Vancouver’s Condo King”; Duncan Wlodarczak, chair of the Liberal Party of Canada in British Columbia and chief of staff at Onni Group, one of the province’s largest developers; the Urban Development Institute; Concert Properties; and Brookfield Asset Management. The motion further demands that both governments produce any agreement between them on the condo program, and any agreement between either government and any developer or lender, immediately upon finalization.
As if: the Liberal majority ended debate on the motion in a five-to-four vote, shelving the probe without allowing it to be decided.
Update: Sam Cooper with Brian Lilley.
The Kings will not tolerate examination of their corruption.
Yup.
The Liberal/Democratic parties’ government model: folow the corrupt city hall approach. Punish opponents, reward friends. Pay off the institutions that are supposed to be neutral, e.g. the media, the justice system. All for money and power.
How is Vancouver stadium FILLED with Colombian WC fans!? So much so, it looks like a HOME GAME for Columbia!?
Ohhhhhh yeah … both are drug-trafficking countries/Provinces.
Kanada is run by an extremely corrupt government. Yet, the “Elbows Up!” retards are just too focused on imaginary free stuff to care.
as cynical as this sounds and is, it is PRECISELY the reason why LIEberals
-engage in rotten corruption and
-get away with it.
hoomahn nature at times *seeks* opportunity to exploit and take PERSONAL advantage of situations and further, CREATE them.
it is the core essence of liberalism in Canaduh. and a HUGE part of that is the wilful idiotic BLINDNESS of the swirling masses.
Well the Kuckservatives(AKA: bible pounders)will whine about gay marriage, harmless weed smoking, and the outing of the corrupt RCC, and pray a lot, butt do nothing else!
Please feel free to regale us with all of your efforts to reduce government corruption in Canada. We can hardly wait to hear your plethora of ideas.
That was such a deep comment on the issue at hand.
Thanks to you, I now understand the deeply disturbing activities around this Condo debacle.
Bible Pounders are the cause.
My CONDO-lences to you and your lonely synapse.
TBH … I would much rather hang out with Bible pounders than ass pounders. And I take great PRIDE in saying that.
GYM’s made his bed, and his ass gets pounded in it!
GYM’s motto is peace, unity, love and brown dick fun.
Dammit….we really need upvotes here!!!
OK. A down vote for GYM; up votes for everybody else.
GYM has to learn to STFU when adults are talking.
Lol.
Is it a plot from a shitty movie?
If it ends up with some politicians getting tossed off Chinkatomi Tower Condo’s … then it might have a happy ending.
Canada’s “Hans Gruber” (aka Steven Guilbault) recently fell off Chinadatomi Tower.
And he used to climb towers!
Sorry … Chyyyynahtomi Towers is more polite. Forgive my rude naming.
Buddy, you have a good idea. But the Canadian Arts Council would veto any funding tor it. Only pro-Liberal movies get funding.
And some more theft….from Conservative Tree House
Mark Carney and Volodymyr Zelenskyy Announce Creation of New Canadian Bank for NATO/Climate Money Laundering, with $900 Million Seed Money from Canadian Taxpayers

Don’t worry…I’m sure Pierre Poilievre will be all over this in the House of Commons.
(he will, right?)
Yup. Man oh man! He’s gonna rip them a new one! Just wait till he stands up and calls them what they are!
You’ll see. Wait for the headlines….tomorrow … or maybe a day or two after.
You will not vote your way out of this, Canada. The whole Freeland, Canada / NATO / EURO bank for Ukraine, the submarine deal, the condo deal for China…
There is no way to vote your way out of this.
There is no way to vote your way out of this.
Agreed. But I can, and will, vote to leave this pathetic cesspool come 19 October.
Why are we hearing about this?
Does the anti-oil wing of the Liberal Party want Carney gone?
You could probably pick some subset of the 27 grievances. I’d crib the rest of the Declaration.
Thank god it’s not a conservative, and a $10 glass of juice!
Thanks for the link, Kate. I had no idea they were being this blatant about it, but I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised about Liberals shutting down debate on investigations into their own corruption.
I watched that entire Cooper/Lilley video (and saved it too, just in case it disappears). First time I had heard about the seven *tonnes* of fentanyl and precursor chemicals in Richmond. Also learned that the fentanyl super-lab in Falkland was the largest ever found IN THE WORLD?
(no one tell KM about any of this, okay?…he stills thinks it was all a Trump fabrication…)
How the hell can something called an ethics committee be comprised of politicians under the control of the governing party. Like virtually everything involving the state, it’s another conflict of interest. This is just another part of the theatre of the absurd.
“Government is a disease masquerading as its own cure” – Robert LeFevre
John, that is the Westminster parliamentary system, operating as designed. A majority government has no checks on it’s power save bad polling. When you have one party rule, a compliant bureaucracy, a corrupt RCMP, a bought press who didn’t even need to be bought, sadly, this is what you get. The only possible bulwark would be the courts, and The Party has control of those as well. This is Libranada, get used to it. Sam Cooper will soon recieve an RCMP shakedown, a CRA invasion and God knows what else as the state apparatus reminds him who runs this shitstain.
How do we start a petition to rename the riding of Napean to Brookfield so Carney can be the Honourable Member for Brookfield?
Just to clear up any confusion.
