Mulroney contends he accepted cash envelopes to lobby now deceased foreign leaders like Borris Yeltstin.  And to convince the UN to purchase light armored vehicles for UN force deployment.

Getting paid in large sums of cash might not have been the best business practices. Mulroney claims he kept the funds in a safe and later gave it to friends and family members.

The former PM claims he did the work, but didn’t issue invoices or declare the income on his taxes until the public got a whiff of the action.

There’s much speculation, with evidence that Mulroney actually accepted the cash to fund (via the taxpayers) a light armored vehicle manufacturing plant  in Bear Heard Nova Scoatia. A place with little employment prospects.

Mulroney claims  he killed Bear Head. Acting in the complete opposite of influence peddling. He accepted cash to say no to spending taxpayer money on a light armor manufacturing plant.

However, a CP report suggest, Mulroney chief of staff,  “Norman Spector contends that Mulroney, in his testimony before a public inquiry, has offered an inaccurate picture of his handling of the project backed by German-Canadian businessman Karlheinz Schreiber.

“What we’ve learned about Mulroney is that he’s very slippery with words and evasive with his testimony,” Spector said.

“He didn’t cancel the project in any incarnation. He never cancelled it.”

The original version of the Bear Head project, first floated in the mid-1980s, would have seen the German firm Thyssen AG set up a plant in Cape Breton to build light-armoured vehicles for sale to the Canadian military as well as for potential export.

The proposed site of the plant changed after 1992 to east-end Montreal, and the project also shifted away from domestic sales toward a heavier emphasis on export markets.
