The Canadian Landowner Alliance advocates for provincial legislation that recognizes property rights, and, that the Federal Government of Canada enshrines property rights in the Charter of Rights and freedoms.
Here's Ezra's first attempt at a list which includes the less obvious winners who will be very happy that their guy won because now he can return those favours.
From the comments at the Rebel: You forgot one of the big winners is Liberal party CFO Chuck Rifici. He was the CEO of Tweed a medical pot company that bought the chocolate factory in Smith Falls and turned it into a pot factory. He owns a 20% stake in Tweed, now known as Canopy Growth Corp although he did step down as CEO and resigned from the Board of Directors. Its up 7.5% today on the TSX venture. On 10 Aug 2015 he was appointed to the board of directors of Aurora Cannabis Inc on the Montreal exchange. One wonders how many other liberal insiders have stakes in the Pot business. This is a lot like the Liberal insiders that got into the wind and solar business in Ontario when the Green Energy act was brought in by Mcsquinty. They made a bundle of cash on those deals.
