Former Harper aide sought perks for escort fiancée
Bruce Carson lobbied Indian Affairs for poor-quality filtration systems
Bruce Carson, a former senior advisor to Prime Minister Stephen Harper, lobbied the Ministry of Indian Affairs on behalf of H20 Pros, a water company that was selling shoddy filtration systems to First Nations reserves. The Ottawa-based water company on whose behalf Carson was lobbying to Indian Affairs employed his fiancée, Michele McPherson, who was an escort, reports APTN. A secret contract witnessed by Carson guaranteed that McPherson, 22, would receive 20 per cent of gross revenues from sales related to water contracts on First Nations reserves.
