Public Declaration of Agreed Compliance Measures (Section 29) disclosed Dec 16, 2025

Agreed Compliance Measures

• Conflict of interest screens are preventive compliance measures, agreed upon pursuant to section 29 of the Conflict of Interest Act (Act) by public office holders and the Conflict of Interest and Ethics Commissioner, to assist them in avoiding conflicts of interest. Screens also seek to minimize the possibility of conflicts arising between the public duties of the public office holder and their private interests or those of their relatives and friends.
• The Conflict of Interest and Ethics Commissioner and I have agreed that a conflict of interest screen is an appropriate compliance measure for me, aimed at preventing any opportunity to further the private interests of my friend, Mr. Tim Powers, President of Summa Strategies or to give preferential treatment to Summa Strategies, while I exercise my official powers, duties and functions as a public office holder.
• Accordingly, I have agreed to recuse myself from any discussion, decision, debate or vote in relation to my friend and Summa Strategies. I understand that recusal means?I must remove myself from?the room, physically or virtually as the case may be. I also agree not to have any communication with government officials in relation to any matter or decision-making processes which I or the screen administrators know or reasonably should know to affect my friend’s private interests.
• This screen is co-administered by my Chief of Staff and the Associate Deputy Minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada to ensure that I am neither made aware of nor participate in any official matters or decision-making processes involving my friend’s private interests, unless the interest relates to a decision or matter that is of general application. I will participate in decisions or matters of general application and those that may affect my friend’s private interests as a member of a broad class of persons unless those interests are disproportionate to the other members of the class.
• This screen does not restrict me from participating in any discussion, decision, debate or vote related to a client of Summa Strategies.
• Moreover, all powers, duties and functions on matters that form part of this screen will be exercised by the Minister of Industry and Minister responsible for Canada Economic Development for Quebec Regions.
• The Prime Minister of Canada, the Clerk of the Privy Council and Secretary to Cabinet, the Parliamentary Secretary, the members of my ministerial staff, as well as necessary public servants have been informed in writing about this conflict of interest screen.
• I have undertaken to inform the Conflict of Interest and Ethics Commissioner at the earliest opportunity of all changes of which I become aware that relate to or should form part of the above list of matters caught by this screen.
• In the event that I am made aware of a matter forming part of this screen or any such matter comes before me, I am required under section 21 of the Act to recuse myself from that matter, by leaving the room or the virtual meeting where the discussion and decision making is taking place. I must so inform the Conflict of Interest and Ethics Commissioner and, where appropriate, make a public declaration of recusal pursuant to subsection 25(1) of the Act.
