Is My MP a Landlord?

Conflict of interest screens are preventive compliance measures, agreed upon pursuant to section 29 of the Conflict of Interest Act (Act) by a public office holder and the Conflict of Interest and Ethics Commissioner, to assist public office holders in avoiding conflicts of interest. Screens also seek to minimize the possibility of conflicts arising between the public duties of the public office holder and their private interests or those of their relatives and friends.

The Conflict of Interest and Ethics Commissioner and I have agreed that a conflict of interest screen is an appropriate compliance measure, aimed at preventing any opportunity to further my interests or to improperly further those of Brookfield Asset Management, Brookfield Corporation, and Stripe Inc., and any company owned or controlled by them (“the Companies”) of which I am aware on the date that my blind trust was established. Attached hereto as Annex A is a list of all of the Companies of which I am aware.

This screen will prevent me from giving preferential treatment to any of the Companies while I exercise my official powers, duties, and functions as a reporting public office holder.

This screen is administered by my Chief of Staff and by the Clerk of the Privy Council to ensure that I am neither made aware of nor participate in any official matters or decision-making processes involving the Companies’ interests. I may, however, participate in a discussion or decision on a matter that is of general application or that affects the Companies’ interests as a member of a broad class of persons unless those interests are disproportionate to the other members of the class.

All powers, duties and functions on matters that form part of this screen will be exercised by the appropriate minister, as selected by the screen administrators.

All ministers, members of my ministerial staff and other necessary ministerial staff and public servants have been informed in writing about this conflict of interest screen.

I have undertaken to inform the Conflict of Interest and Ethics Commissioner at the earliest opportunity of all changes of which I become aware that relate to or should form part of the matters caught by this screen.

In the event that I am made aware of a matter forming part of this screen or any such matter comes before me, I am required under section 21 of the Act to recuse myself from that matter by removing myself from the room where the discussion or decision is taking place. I must so inform the Conflict of Interest and Ethics Commissioner and, where appropriate, make a public declaration of recusal pursuant to subsection 25(1) of the Act.
