Two Liberal MPs held shares in Facebook even as cabinet vowed to lead a national advertising boycott against the company. Neither MP commented yesterday after cabinet said it was “doing our part” to cut dealings with Facebook.
Ethics filings show MPs Taleeb Noormohamed (Vancouver Granville) and James Maloney (Etobicoke-Lakeshore, Ont.) held an undisclosed number of shares in Meta Platforms Incorporated, the parent company of Facebook. Meta reported $116.6 billion in revenues last year, according to a shareholders’ report.
MP Noormohamed had extensive stock holdings in 77 companies and indices including Amazon, Microsoft Corporation, Twitter Incorporated, PayPal Holdings and Walt Disney Co.
