I am an award winning businessman whose company was featured in Forbes (with an MBA from a top 1% US university). I once got the largest startup loan in BDC history and have been invited to accompany the PM on trade missions. In short, I have unequivically exceptional credentials. Just to test these people, at the so-called Leadership Grants Organization of Canada, I applied for a grant of $100, 000. They tried to refer me to the business plan service(which is probably just another company, owned by another family member or business associate. Until my plan was sent in, was sent it in, I kept getting reminders from Shelly Barnes at the Leadership Grants Organization of Canada. So I sent them an exceptional business plan, which was beyond their competence to question, as well as proof of significant Matching Funds back in March. Today I received a letter stating they are unable to accomodate me (as they could find nothing else). Last week, btw, the phone at the Leadership Grants Organization of Canada was disconnected and they have an interim number. Anyway, here is what the Leadership Grants Organization of Canada does.The Leadership Grants Organization of Canada is a not for profit, which means while the Leadership Grants Organization of Canada is a not for profit society, they can pay their employees anything. The Leadership Grants Organization of Canada uses the lure of free money to get referrals for the Business Plans service from which their associcates make money. Every now and then they pay some person a few thousand (I have spoken to recepients). To my knowledge they have never paid a substantial amount. The few thousand they pay is written off as a sort of advertising expense. This allows the the Leadership Grants Organization of Canada to list receipients on their website and try to gain credibility. In the end, Leadership Grants Organization of Canada is using deceptive business practices to perpetuate a scam.If they have any informatiion to substantiate otherwise, I will gladly revise.
