DeSmogBlog's Channel

The DeSmogBlog team is led by Jim Hoggan, the president of the
public relations firm James Hoggan & Associates. Over the past two
decades, Jim has earned a reputation as one of Canada’s leading public
relations professionals. Jim believes that integrity and public
relations should not be at odds – that a good public reputation
generally flows from a record of responsible actions. His client list
includes real estate development companies, high tech firms,
pharmaceutical, forest industry giants, resorts and academic
institutions. He is also the Chair of the David Suzuki Foundation and a
Trustee of the Dalai Lama Centre for Peace and Education.

The DeSmogBlog team is especially grateful to our benefactor John
Lefebvre, a lawyer, internet entrepreneur and past-president of
NETeller, a firm that has been providing secure online transactions
since 1999. John has been outspoken, uncompromising and courageous in
challenging those who would muddy the climate change debate, and he has
enabled and inspired the same standard on the blog.

Editorial Assistance on the blog is provided by renowned author Ross
Gelbspan and by Richard Littlemore, an award-winning science and
magazine writer, a speechwriter and a senior counsellor at Hoggan.
Kevin Grandia oversees the project as a whole, Darren Barefoot manages
the online aspects, and both make valuable contributions to content.
