Osisko Gold Royalties Ltd has established a formal Lobbying Policy, as noted: "The Board adopted a Lobbying Policy to provide a framework to such employees who are authorized to act on behalf of the Corporation to communicate with public officials." This policy makes clear that these representatives "are therefore held accountable for conducting activities in a transparent and ethical manner and complying with the Lobbying Policy" and stipulates its purpose "to facilitate the Corporation’s and its In-house representatives’ compliance with lobbying laws everywhere the Corporation operates, and to enable the accurate, complete and timely tracking of the Corporation’s or its in-house representatives’ trackable contact with public officials." A copy of the policy is publicly available on the company website. However, the company does not disclose any specific individual or formal body charged with overseeing or reviewing lobbying alignment, nor does it describe any process for monitoring or aligning its direct or indirect lobbying activities with its climate strategy. We found no evidence of criteria or procedures for evaluating its membership in trade associations or adjusting lobbying positions to support climate objectives.
