The 2007 document has surfaced one week after it was revealed that the Premier was a partner in her former husband’s lobbying firm, which formerly listed its office at her residence and boasted such clients as Enbridge and B.C. Rail.

According to Ms. Clark’s official bio and campaign materials, “She took a break from government in 2005 to spend more time with her family. She worked in the media during her time from government.”

It was during that time that she was engaged as chairwoman of a Vancouver-based investment firm’s plan to bring affluent international students to Canadian universities — capitalizing on her experience as education minister and deputy premier — with the firm now benefiting from her position as head of the B.C. government.
