Plans to investigate Paper Excellence's ownership structure and business ties now face delays at the federal and provincial level.
The president of the BC NDP has warned members of a riding association their motion to investigate the forestry company Paper Excellence would be ruled “out of order” because it didn’t meet requirements laid out under the party’s constitution.
BC NDP president Aaron Sumexheltza declined to comment on the situation and deferred to his staff. According to the party’s provincial director Heather Stoutenburg, the motion can’t go to council because it doesn’t amplify or extend any previous resolutions. Federal investigation into Paper Excellence faces its own delays On March 31, the federal Standing Committee on Natural Resources voted to investigate the ownership structure and business relations of Paper Excellence. That decision came following a months-long investigation conducted by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists — including media partners Glacier Media, the CBC, the Halifax Examiner, Le Monde and Radio France — into the company’s overseas ties.
Last week, the first session of the federal investigation was cancelled after a last-minute realization they lacked enough committee support staff.
