According to an article in the National Post, tickets for the event cost $1,500. You can see that article at: http://news.nationalpost.com/news/canada/canadian-politics/justin-trudeau-fundraiser- picketed-by-jewish-group-over-liberals-support-for-iran-nuclear-deal. At the time of the event, Apotex was registered to lobby the House of Commons (which means it confirmed that it was lobbying at least some MPs, possibly including Mr. Trudeau) and Mr. Sherman was included as a registered lobbyist in that registration. Currently, Apotex (including Mr. Sherman), along with several consultant lobbyists it has hired since March 1, 2016, are all registered to lobby the Prime Minister’s Office. The consultant lobbyists registered to lobby the Prime Minister’s Office on behalf of Apotex are Aaron Dobbin, John Duffy, Andrew Steele, Brian Teefy and Danya Vered (all five work at StrategyCorp Inc.), as well as Lester Scheininger.

    CAMH/CAMH Foundation Annual Report to the Community 2019-2020 A Message from our CEOs and Board Chairs On behalf of CAMH and CAMH Foundation, thank you for your continued support of our hospital, our mission and the people we serve. Typically at this time of year, you’d receive our annual report. During these difficult times, however, we’ve had to adapt, as our hospital focuses on keeping our patients and community safe. Even though our plans have changed, our commitment to being transparent and keeping you informed remains steadfast. With that, we’re pleased to provide you with a financial update from CAMH and CAMH Foundation for the past fiscal year (ended March 31, 2020). Since the COVID-19 pandemic began, the CAMH community has rallied together to support the public through these challenging times. From March to April 2020 alone, CAMH’s virtual care visits increased from approximately 350 per month to almost 3,000 per month. Our experts quickly mobilized to develop evidence- based tips, coping strategies and resources for the public and health care workers, and we launched a new awareness campaign: Apart. Not Alone., which you may have seen in The Globe & Mail, on social media and in television commercials. As we look toward the future, CAMH is preparing for the opening of two new hospital buildings in the fall as part of our plan to build the mental health facility of the future. In today’s challenging times, and with important work still ahead of us, our shared mission has never been more critical: Mental health is health.
