BC Reform critic flags Struble Totten ties to premier
In a Pioneer News column Jack Weisgerber outlines concerns over a Washington firm Struble Totten influencing British Columbia government policy. He cites hundreds of calls since 1991, speeches for the premier, advised land use and a 1993 cabinet shuffle, plus nearly 5 million paid to NOW Communications. An auditor general ruling found no personal benefit to the premier, prompting calls to investigate further and to contact Premier Harcourt with outrage over political patronage and foreign advice shaping provincial affairs.
