Ward 7 hopeful, John Alexander Blommesteyn, is the sole Director of the company, 7656092 Canada Inc which was incorporated on 22 September 2010.

Interestingly, I see from the Corporations Canada website that the company was dissolved for non-compliance on 22 July 2013. The Annual filings for 2011 and 2012 were overdue.

Corporations Canada tells me:

“This corporation was dissolved by Corporations Canada for failure to send a required fee, notice or document. It cannot apply for any transactions until it is revived. For more information, consult our Revival Policy.”

Go to Corporations Canada website www.corporationscanada.ic.gc.ca In the search box type 7656092 and this will take you to the relevant documentation.

Curiously, bizapedia now lists Blommesteyn’s company as “active”.

Either way, I think the voters in Ward 7 need some kind of explanation. After all, Blommesteyn is a self-styled champion of taxpayers and touts transparency as one of his big selling points.

It is all very strange.
