Two ex- ministers of provincial cabinet have been explicitly named at the Charbonneau Commission on Wednesday morning, as detail-oriented Quebec public corruption inquiry keeps on digging more list of meetings held at an exclusive club on Montreal’s de la Commune St.
The two ministers, namely Line Beauchamp and Tony Tomassi, both previously served in ex-premier Jean’s Charest government and now have cornered themselves from life. They are accused of being present at a Club 357c at least once in 2007 or 2008. Investigation points out that Beauchamp was formally called on for a 12-person breakfast meeting by club member Rosaire Sauriol, who is an executive at engineering firm Dessau. Few other names present on the guest list of that morning breakfast were former Union Montreal financing head, Bernard Trepanier, and a Quebec Liberal Party fundraiser, Pierre Bibeau, along with the construction tycoon, Paolo Catania.
Tomassi resigned from his office last year after being charged with offences of fraud and breach of public trust. Tomassi was allegedly invited to dine alone with Catania in early 2008. These two former Liberals are just a small part of an otherwise lengthy list of visitors of the club. A commission investigator, Erick Roy, went on naming all the visitors of the club in front of the commissioners from a 10-page long list of meetings held inside 357c starting from 2004. Eventually, it became crystal clear that city of Montreal was very well-represented inside the members-only club. City councillors Sammy Forcillo and Claude Dauphin were both there in 2007 at Catania’s invitation, Roy said.
