The man whose last name is now uttered in question period multiple times a day — Warren Shepell — evidently didn’t want Finance Minister Bill Morneau to win his Toronto seat in the 2015 federal election.

Shepell — who made it clear in an interview with the Financial Post back in 2015 that he’s no fan of Morneau — donated $1,500 to the NDP in the fall of 2015: $500 on Sept. 10 and $1,000 after the election, on Nov. 1, 2015.

The NDP’s candidate in the Toronto Centre riding was Linda McQuaig.

While Shepell’s name graces Morneau Shepell — the major human resources management company Morneau’s father helped establish — he didn’t actually want his name to be included on the company banner.

Shepell founded his own firm in 1979 to help companies deliver mental health counselling to employees. He sold his firm to Clairvest, a private equity management firm. Morneau’s firm then bought Shepell’s company three years later and changed the name to Morneau Shepell — despite the objections of Shepell himself.

“I sold the company and the list of clients, but I didn’t really sell the name Shepell,” Shepell told the Financial Post in 2015, adding that he got the Ontario government to send Morneau a letter in 2001 saying that “under the business corporations act, written consent must be obtained to use the name of an individual.”

Shepell told the Post that he met with Morneau and suggested — since the company would be named after him — that he “become associated” with it. “But he said no. I found him to be very cold,” he said in the interview.

Fun fact: Shepell is also a psychologist and wrote a book called ‘A Woman’s Pleasure’ under the pen name J.F. Kelly. The book was released in 2014.

“You might call my book the anti-‘Fifty Shades of Grey’,” Shepell wrote in a release at the time, “because it’s about understanding your partner’s emotional needs as well as his or her physical needs.”
