Political Footprint
Donations · lobbying · contracts

15 insiders linked to BMO are also individual political donors — $27K across 49 donations (2009–2023).

Conservative Party of Canada · $14K Liberal Party of Canada · $11K People's Party of Canada · $900 No Affiliation · $500 Green Party of Canada · $400 New Democratic Party · $400

Form55 also tracks BMO's federal footprint: 19 lobbying registrations naming 9 departments, and $922K across 22 federal contracts from 6 departments.

The chain — lobbied & awarded

1 department appears in both BMO's federal lobbying filings and its federal contract awards:

Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada $18K · 1 contract

Sources: Elections Canada (individual donations only — corporate political donations banned federally since 2007), the federal Registry of Lobbyists, and federal contract disclosures. Insiders matched to donors by name. Shown for transparency from disclosed public records — this is not a Confluence Score input, implies no causal link between donations, lobbying, or contracts, and is not a claim of wrongdoing.
