The May, 2009 issue of Common Ground contains a special supplement, Take Back Your Power. It contains four articles, a map, and a list of rivers threatened by river privatization projects. It's very worthwhile material, but one article that is particularly valuable is Key BC Liberal insiders hired by private power developers (PDF).

It's a long list. Here are some of the more prominent names on it:

Patrick Kinsella, Co-chair of 2001 and 2005 BC Liberal provincial campaigns - has consulted for Alcan, Accenture and now Plutonic Power. Alleged to have worked for both CN and BC Rail as BC Rail was being sold to CN.

Tom Syer, former deputy chief of staff to Gordon Campbell, now a director at Plutonic Power/GE.

Mark Grant, former executive director of the BC Liberal Party, now with Rupert Peace Power.

Michael J. O’Conner, former President and CEO of Crown Corporation BC Transit, now holds senior positions at Naikun.

Geoff Plant, former BC Liberal Attorney General, now chair of Renaissance Power.
