Found this on canada.com:
"Schreiber also told the committee he financed chartered airplanes for delegates from Quebec to attend a 1983 Tory convention in Winnipeg to vote against then-leader Joe Clark. He said the money came from his pocket as well as that of the late Franz Josef Strauss, the chairman of Airbus Industrie, and probably from his German political party, the Christian Social Union."
