Hello, Yupette,
Thank you for your e-mail regarding the ongoing investigation of AECOM by the Surete de Quebec.
Latest about the investigation of AECOM and other engineering and construction companies is it appears the collusion, bribes, payments of "consulting fees" to elected officials to obtain no-bid and sole-source contracts, and other activities extend way beyond the Province of Quebec and Canada.
Much of the investigation here in PQ involves collusion, i.e., elected officials award contracts to one or two engineering and construction corporations, excluding all others.
If you do a Web search on "AECOM Montreal corruption investigation" and "Charbonneau Commssion" you will learn a lot about what is occurring in PQ with regard to corruption in the engineering and construction sectors.
Regards,
Rene'

Does anyone know if AECOM has sole source and no-bid contracts with Arlington County?
If Bus Rapid Transit were to be the transit option for Columbia Pike and Crystal City would AECOM be providing engineering services to the County?
Good going, Arlington Yupette! You're doing a real service to the real people of Arlington who are fed up with the shenanigans by the local "government" that have gone on far too long! Bravo!
Has Zimmerman filed a new or amended statement of financial interests with the Clerk of the County Board?
Time is long overdue for an independent Inspector General in Arlington County Government.
Why did Zimmy enter into a consulting contract with a PQ engineering and construction firm when PQ engineering and construction firms have been under investigation for corruption for years?
What is the $500 million Pike and Crystal City streetcar design, construction, etc., all about? A program to generate personal income for Chris Zimmerman and other "decision makers"?
Amount of expected 'gratuties' paid to corrupt pols in the Province of Quebec was 2.5% of the total project cost. So, $500,000,000 X .025 = $12,500,000
The Pike and Crystal City streetcar projects are not about transportation.
I am SICK and TIRED of this Yuppie $#!+ that has been going on and getting worse for 30 years.
The Yuptards do what they want, when they want, and don't give a rat's a$$ about the consequences.
What the hell is the difference between some wacky 51 year old Yuppie Mommy in Connecticut arming her 20-something spoiled brat to the teeth so he can wreak mayhem on his former elementary school without warning and our 51 year old First Yuppie arming 20-something military and intelligence brats with every conceivable weapon so they can wreak mayhem on innocent people in third world nations without warning?
Then there is Arlington First Yuppie Zimmerman, also a wacko 51 year old Yuptard who is repeatedly allowed to inflict his 'vision' on the rest of us without warning and with no consideration of the consequences whatsoever.
When is this Yuptard $#!+ finally going to end? Or is it EVER going to end?
Consequences? What are consequences?
Consequences are when you get f-d up on drugs and alcohol too much and your parents have to send you to rehab.
Serious consequences - Mom drives you to the range with the hi cap semi autos and assault rifle she bought your for Christmas / birthday presents after your appointment with your psychiatrist.
A couple years ago I saw a female teenager with Zimmy at a Wakefield HS event and she was a total Goth. I asked who she was and response was "that's Chris's daughter".
Blame Jimmy Carter. When Jimmy Carter was President there were no high-capacity semi-autos, no assault rifles, no cocaine, no crack, no meth, no SUVs, no McMansions, no gentrification, no homelessness, no constant warfighting in the Middle East, no massive outsourcing of U.S. jobs. President Carter also tried to DO SOMETHING about real peace in the Middle East and renewable energy.
Oh, during Carter's Presidency there were no Yuppies.
Then there's Arlington's First WackyCrat, Libby Garvey, who's all for bus rapid transit but has provided zero information to residents about what state-of-the-art BRT even looks like.
If A.Y. is what passes for 'investigative journalism' in Northern VA we are in big trouble.
Yuppie Parents: Do you know where your Goth children are shooting?
Can't blame Jimmy Carter for the Goth pestilence, not a significant epidemic until 1981.
Yupette, latest news is Adam's Yuppie Mommy taught him how to shoot.
'Investigative Journalism' is an oxymoron in Northern Virginia.
Adam's Mom and Dad were Mr. and Mrs. Yuppie America finalists in 2006.
Hmmmm..... Tea Party wing of Yuppie America?
If Libby Garvey is so pro-BRT why no information about BRT from her?
AECOM has numerous large contracts inside the Beltway, why is Zimmy working for AECOM's Canadian subsidiary that's been under anti-corruption investigation for years?
"Look, I know Americans, like me, who are in our early 50's have been having a great time over the past 30 years. But the party's getting a little rowdy and we're going to have to make some adjustments to our lifestyle."
Yeah, Prez Obama was so moved by the distress of his fellow Ivy League Yups when he visited Connecticut that he decided to give them a boost and a big Christmas present - keeping the bus from going over the fiscal cliff by throwing the middle class, seniors, etc., who voted for him under it.
Two-faced Ivy League Elitist Pols? Like Libby Garvey?
Do a Web search on Nancy Champion Lanza.
As a matter of fact, the First Yuppie HAS agreed to throw the middle class under the bus, check out the front page of today's NY Times.
Twenty - Twenty - Twenty - four hours to go, I wanna be sedated
No thing to do and no where to go, oh, I wanna be sedated
How about doing a feature about bribery right on Clarendon Blvd.?
