"(Daniel Edelman) serv(ed) in a United States Army psychological warfare unit)"

(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Edelman "
" It has used front groups to help the American Petroleum Institute reduce the perceived environmental damage caused by oil companies."

Lisa Kimmel is president and CEO of Edelman Canada.
