If the sole goal of the Flames foundation was to raise money for charity they would find better uses of their time than planning golf and poker tournaments. But let’s be honest. That’s not their sole goal.
I feel like everyone understands that, including the watchdog group who are simply pointing it out. I listened to some of the interview with the Foundation COO and he came across as a little defensive. Precisely for this reason I suspect.
I have zero suspicions they are up to anything nefarious. But in many ways they are a subset of the Flames with little desire for financial or operational transparency. Now it is damage control mode.
