1/3
John Poulos' wife is Colleen McClure-Poulos, who is a Director for the DELIAN Project.
Colleen attended the kickstart event for "Next 36", a nine-month program for young Canadians that provided guidance, connections, and finances to build a mobile venture. The program partners were Jimmy Patterson and Paul Desmarais Sr. This event was held at the Weston family's backyard in Toronto. The Weston family owns Loblaw and a bunch of brands in the UK.
At this event, Collen poses with Willa Black and Martha Fisher. You can see clearly that these individuals are on a first-name basis with each other; they posed with their arms on each others' backs.
Martha Fisher's name returns search results along with the name of Ian MacVicar, Executive Chairman and CFO of Dominion Voting Systems. Little is to be found about her. Let's get to know her husband, Ian A. MacVicar. He was a presenter at the Canadian-Serbian Business forum in Belgrade, Serbia in 2015. Was this to hire their offshore developers? We don't know, but we know that they have programmers in Serbia. What we know is MacVicar worked in investment banking, private equity, and venture capital. He was also the former vice-president with GE Capital Canada and Merrill Lynch Canada. In one of the corporate filings of one of his businesses called Standard Optical, David P. Main was listed as the co-CEO. David Main is a former partner of Bain and co-founded the Canadian office in 1990. now works with companies with a "sustainability agenda". In his blog, he mentions that "the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals are the best global consensus of where we need to go."
