GAVI, the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization, hired yet another lobbyist last year to push their agenda in Ottawa. This is a “Conservative” named Cameron Doherty. He joins Ashton Arsenault, who is still officially registered.
All of these lobbyists seem to come from the same firm, Crestview Strategy. The organization was co-founded by Rob Silver, husband of Katie Telford, Trudeau’s Chief of Staff.
Zakery Blais worked as a staffer for David Lametti, before he was Attorney General.
Jason Clark, former LPC fundraiser, lobbied for GAVI.
Ashton Arsenault is a conservative “strategist”.
For reference, visit the “pharma” page on this site. It’s quite disgusting how prevalent lobbying, and in particular, drug lobbying really is.
On the Federal Lobbying Registry, GAVI describes its work as follows:
Working with Parliamentarians to advocate for support for commitments to vaccines and immunization in the form of policy that recognizes the value of improving global health outcomes, emergency and humanitarian assistance, pharmaceutical innovation, official development financing and poverty reduction.

It’s hardly just Ottawa that funds GAVI. Governments all over the world fund it with taxpayer money. How much more will Doherty cause to be sent abroad?
On October 16th, 2023, he met with:
- Matthew Trnkus, Senior Advisor | Global Affairs Canada (GAC)
On October 17th, 2023, he met with:
- Jwane Izzetpanah, Manager, Stakeholder Relations | House of Commons
- Oz Jungic, Senior Policy Advisor | Prime Minister’s Office (PMO)
- Darren Hall, Policy Advisor | House of Commons
- Christina Lynch, Director of Operations | Privy Council Office (PCO)
- Nisara Jiwani, Senior Analyst | Privy Council Office (PCO)
On October 18th, 2023, he met with:
- Ali Ehsassi, Member of Parliament | House of Commons
- Heather McPherson, Member of Parliament | House of Commons
- Mike Lake, Member of Parliament | House of Commons
This is just the information that’s “on the books”. There could very easily be more that isn’t disclosed to the public.
On his LinkedIn page, Doherty lists himself as having completed internships both with the Ontario Conservatives (2020), and the Conservative Party of Canada (2021). Presumably, he’s well “educated” in the need for mass vaccinating the public.
This is consistent with the behaviour in this field. A person will have a short stint with a political party (or a few of them) and then go in to lobbying. Those connections will then be used in order to influence the decision making of “governments”.
All Parties Involved With “Influence Peddling” In Ottawa
As an aside, Jagmeet Singh, NDP chief, was recently in the news for all the wrong reasons. His brother Gurratan Singh, was exposed as being a lobbyist for Metro, a competitor of Loblaws.
All parties are involved with lobbying, which means they all have special interest groups determining what their policies will be. “Mr. Fire Your Lobbyist” seems to be okay with the drug peddling that goes on, but decides to call out the grocery store influence.
CPC, NDP Both Took Trudeau Bailout Money In 2020
This reaches back to 2020, but both the Conservative Party of Canada and the New Democratic Party received CEWS. This is the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy, a bailout program run by the C.R.A. in 2020 and 2021. Ever wonder why “opponents” always seem to agree on so much?
It’s almost as if they’re all in it together.

Yes even I got some Cerb money, I think…although I was denied EI because my employer said I was fired for reasons of “misconduct” due to their racist and ‘woke’ and Maoist beliefs.
BUT, that does not mean I agree with the criminal Lieberal Party, Gavi, etc. etc. They majorly NEED to be overthrown NOW!
Poilievre for Prime Minister! NOT the totally corrupt Turdo. (nothing true about him) Our homegrown Communazi. Or his minions, esp. Slaveland (nothing free about her)and Guiltybore (nothing environmental about him)
