Activists ask Clinton Foundation to return Canadian donations

摘要

Opponents of TransCanada Corp.'s Keystone XL oil pipeline are asking the Clinton Foundation to return at least $250,000 in donations from the Canadian government agency promoting the project. Controversy has swirled around news of foreign donations to the foundation amid a possible presidential run by former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, including between $250,000 and $500,000 from Canada's Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development. The group Credo Action is circulating an online petition meant to pressure the Clinton Foundation to return the donations, saying they constitute a "significant conflict of interest."
