We Know About Soros — But Who Is Maurice Strong?

Canadian mogul and avowed socialist Maurice Strong manipulates governments to benefit his "green" portfolio and those of his friends: George Soros, Ted Turner, Al Gore, and China.

Intercontinental Exchange has agreed to purchase the parent company of the Chicago Climate Exchange, the preeminent market for trading carbon credits. This is a market that exists solely to capitalize on possible federal legislation that would mandate reduced greenhouse gas emissions or the purchase of “pollution credits.”

Politicians created this market out of thin air by fiat, and not surprisingly, cronies of these politicians will be the beneficiaries. These climate change profiteers include Maurice Strong.

We know of the usual suspects who have invested, either directly or indirectly, in the Climate Exchange: Goldman Sachs, Al Gore, and Chicago’s Joyce Foundation (which made an investment when Barack Obama sat on its board), among others. Franklin Raines, while he headed Fannie Mae, purchased and patented the mechanism used for trading under the cap-and-trade system — an investment that could fare far better than the trillion dollars worth of bad mortgages he saddled Fannie Mae with.

But Maurice Strong … who is he?

Strong is Canada’s George Soros — a man of vast wealth who has parlayed his fortune into influence. Strong made his money in the Canadian energy markets and decades ago began a second career hobnobbing with diplomats and environmentalists.

Strong became a wheeler and dealer at the UN.

maurice has been a subject of discussion on this forum for at least 10 years.

also, there was a wsj article on him about the time of the 2008 elections.

Glenn Beck has been exposing Strong for the past few weeks; good to see more coverage.

[Vaduz]

A second career hobnobbing with diplomats and environmentalists = $$$$$$$$$$$ Algore grins.

[RightGuy]

Here’s another name that has been below the radar: Peter B. Lewis, whose family founded Progressive Insurance. He’s a billionaire and has been funding leftist efforts, largely at the suggestion of pal George Soros. He needs to be exposed as well.

For sure. I've posted about his role in the world socialist plot several times over that period. No one seemed to care.

Atta boy Mr Lasky, keep running down this road. This is the Holy Grail for Watermelon Liberals.

Great links! thanks

[jazminerose]

You are welcome. There are plenty more at the site, www.joytiz.com, just do a search for “Soros”.

[opentalk]

Billionaire George Soros and Progressive insurance magnate Peter B. Lewis, involved in the Secretary of State Project — SoSP Project is effectively funded by Soros and Lewis.

[RightGuy]

Thanks for the funding heads-up on that cynical and sinister effort (Secretary of State Project) to “manage” the conduct of elections, state-by-state, by electing Secretaries of State from the Left. I believe this was undertaken after Ken Blackwell so courageously kept things in Ohio on the up-and-up in 2004. Wasn’t aware of the Lewis connection.

[quintr]

thanks for the links

[opentalk]

They seem to run the funding through Democracy Alliance

He was also the ‘architect’ of the original Kyoto pact.

[adanaC]

Liberals and Strong shafted Canadians but thank God we elected a good Conservative, PM Harper, who cut them (Chretien, Martin and Strong) off at the pass and Canada now has the best economic performance in the world along with Germany. Harper has made sure the KYOTO scam is dead and has consistently lowered taxes doing so.
