Ethical Oil Org named the first three recipients of their much vied-for "Lobbyist for OPEC" 2012 awards at a marvellous glittering burqa ceremony on July 3. No, the recipients were not the CBC, Globe&Mail nor the TorontoStar. Better luck next time guys.
Needless to say, the awards ceremony was visited by bullies who tried to shut it down.
The Master of Ceremonies started off this ground-breaking first ever event of it's kind, by announcing that:
In Canada there are thousands of people who work to advance OPEC’s interests. The amazing thing is, most of them do so unwittingly.
Canadians will continue to need oil for decades to come. So when radical activists campaign to stop Canadian industry and infrastructure development, they are actually campaigning to continue Canada and the world’s reliance on oil from OPEC’s tyrants.
To acknowledge the work of OPEC’s surrogates in Canada, EthicalOil.org hosted the inaugural OPEC Lobbyists of the Year Awards to acknowledge those who have truly stood out in advancing OPEC’s interests in Canada over the past year.........
