    Union Leaders' Firm Backed B.C. Liberals By charlie smith, Straight.com
    Canada's top labour leader, Ken Georgetti, is on the board of a Vancouver-based development company that donated $16,665 to the B.C. Liberal party last year.

    Concert Properties Ltd. is owned by 21 union and management pension funds; 13 of the company's 17 directors, including Georgetti, have extensive backgrounds in the labour movement.

    According to Elections BC records, Concert Properties was the 35th-largest donor to the B.C. Liberal party, which has been led by Premier Gordon Campbell since 1993.
