The unsavoury spectacle of Ontario’s politicians supplicating big business and big labour for events such as the Heritage Dinner is only a small piece of the fundraising puzzle glimpsed by the public. Beyond the showy hobnobbing, shadowy appeals by cabinet ministers for corporate money are the untold story at Queen’s Park. In Ontario, the Wild West of fundraising, cabinet ministers are assigned secret targets as high as $500,000 a year.
Getting face time with British Columbia Premier Clark costs as well.
