Thanks to the research done by a member of Facebook, we discovered today that Tony Clements is the man behind EthicalOil.
Tony Clements already is known for his highly unethical abuse of office, previously he was the man behind the G8 slush fund and now he is the man behind UnethicalOil.
In Sept 2011 the New Democrats requested the G8 documents be handed over to the RCMP and the House of Commons ethics committee for investigation regarding a breach of internal rules. Clearly now the RCMP should also investigate Tony Clement in regards to his personal role in EthicalOil and this abuse of office.
A bit of background on Ezra Levant the author of a book called Ethical Oil
From Wikipedia
“In 2001, Levant returned to Calgary to practice law. By February 2002 he had won the Canadian Alliance party nomination for the riding of Calgary Southwest, but stepped aside after public pressure so that new party leader Stephen Harper could run there in a 2002 by-election. When the by-election was called, Levant, who said he spent over $150,000 to gain the nomination, announced on March 28 that he would not step aside. Later that night, however, he relented after widespread pressure from the party and accusations that he was putting himself ahead of the party.”
“Also in 2011, Alykhan Velshi, a former staffer for Minister of Immigration Jason Kenney, founded a website to promote the ideas put forward by Ezra Levant in his book. The website, EthicalOil.org, launched a campaign to compare Canada’s ‘Ethical Oil’ against OPEC’s ‘Conflict Oil’ and features controversial advertisements comparing conditions for women, gays and other minorities in OPEC countries to those in Canada. EthicalOil.org has staged counter-protests in response to opposition to the Keystone XL pipeline project. After setting up the ethicaloil.org website, Velshi has returned to Parliament Hill in late 2011, in the position of Director of Planning for the Prime Minister’s Office.”
The above shows it is very obvious the PMO’s office is being influenced not by ethical policy but unethical backroom payoffs.
Now getting back to Tony Clement, for those of you who are interested in evidence link him directly to EthicalOil see the following links and screen captures.
Note that Tony Clement’s Campain Office and EthicalOil share the same postal address for receiving funds to run this website. Yet they claim it is a website run out of Alberta. Look at this claim made on their webpage, which now shows they are clearly a group of liars, along with Tony Clement.
“We are a registered non-profit NGO and do not accept money from any government agency. We are non-partisan and believe that the Canadian values reflected in Ethical Oil appeal to people from all walks of life and across the political spectrum.”
EthicalOil in a recent interview on refused to disclose if they are receiving funding directly or indirectly from Enbridge to promote the pipeline.

UPDATE: For another eye opening revelation see the following image. Thanks to Tia on Facebook for this one. Talk about a bunch of lying and cheating Conservatives, once again getting caught showing how dishonest they really are.
UPDATE: We added new information at the bottom of the page, to further prove this government is unfit to govern Canada. If they cannot conduct themselves honestly they do not have the right to be in office.

Repost from Mike Rilstone – They are ^NOT a small grass roots organization. Ethicaloil.org is running off of Tory Reform Party MP’s Jason Kenney’s own IP address!

repost from Jarek Niskiewicz - Not only are they hosted on the same ip address but they also use the same DNS Server - given that there are millions of hosting companies and tons of DNS servers this is not coincidence… Further the IP address used has few domain names on it! @Chris, no it’s not the same as city, it’s much more like the same house and given the fact that under 20 domains are hosted on it, it’s much more like the same room…. City would be if the IP address was in the same class, those two are under the same IP - huge difference. The domains hosted are:: ethicaloil.ca abingdon-research.com

repost from William Jordan - Of the four national federal parties (didn’t check Bloq) only the NDP & Green’s host in Canada on a Canadian IP. While the Tories and Liberals both use Peer1 only the Liberals appear to be in their Toronto NOC. The NDP use Montreal’s iWeb to host their site. The Green’s also use a Quebec based company, Netelligent, for their hosting.
That these”groups” all use The Planet to host these sites it is their use of the same IP that suggests co-ordination. The very same IP at minimum donotes using the same server (physical or virtual). Therefore it is reasonable to assume it is the same account.
While one hosting server can be shared by hundreds of disparate websites it is very unlikely that websites created at different times would end up on the same shared hosting server.
It is possible but an enterprising journalist who still believes that the public has a right to know and that is why we guarantee a free press might actually call The Planet to find out. Or ask the Minister and Enbridge directly. After all public funds, personnel and other assets may be being used (or abused) in this supposed collusion.

SunTvNews.ca **AND** http://EthicalOil.org are both hosted at http://gonewclearproductions.com
- 3 IPs apart

Now here’s an interesting bunch of sites on the same server:

Awesome job JLS and supporters! Keep fightin’ the good fight and we will be working behind the scenes to get the word out and more info coming in…
Didn’t think I saw the screen caps first time by… either way, nice work. Make it visible and the twitterverse starts digging.
The domain is actually hosted, in part, by Hamish Marshall..and here the plot thickens a little more:
“Hamish Marshall is the President and COO of GoNewClear Productions. He is a well-known strategist and activist trainer within Conservative circles, and also served as one of two British Columbia representatives on the federal Conservatives’ national council between 2008 and 2010.
He started his political career working for Canadian Alliance MP Joe Peschisolido from 2001-2002, and for the Conservative Party doing outreach for the Office of the Leader of the Official Opposition from 2002-2003. He then left his position at the Conservative-Party connected NaiKun Energy in 2006 to work in the Prime Minister’s Office as Harper’s Manager of Strategic Planning until September 2007. In 2008, he managed polling for the Conservative re-election campaign.
The Ethical Oil-Harper government revolving door doesn’t end there. Hamish Marshall is married to EthicalOil spokeswoman Kathryn Marshall, who took over last fall when her predecessor Alykhan Velshi moved into the Prime Minister’s Office as the director of planning.
Hamish Marshall, through strategicimperativesonline, has registered 32 websites. Nearly all are connected to EthicalOil.org, the Conservative Party of Canada, and the right wing Alberta Wildrose Alliance Party.”
