Liberal Party Activity
Bornmann's political involvement began in high school and continued throughout his university years. He was a prominent member of the University of Victoria Young Liberals. It was at that time that he first was elected President of the Young Liberals of Canada (BC). The Young Liberals of Canada (BC) were known for being an influential and activist force within the Liberal Party of Canada. The organization played a leadership role in formulating Liberal Party Policy, including support for same-sex marriage, abolition of the Immigration Landing Tax, and greater electoral representation for British Columbia in Parliament.
Erik Bornmann would go on to serve as Policy Chair to the Liberal Party of Canada in BC. In that role he oversaw the reorganization of the party's grassroots policy process creating a policy committee and a broader plenary process by which party policy resolutions are adopted at conventions. He later also served as Communications Chair to the Liberal Party of Canada in BC.
Other Activities
Bornmann also worked as a communications consultant to the Council of Forest Industries and Canada Payphone Corporation. He has also served on the University of Victoria Academic Senate. Bornmann worked as an intern for Canadian Finance Minister Paul Martin as well as to National Revenue Minister David Anderson.
BC Rail Trial
In 2003 the RCMP publicised an investigation targeting two BC government assistants. The investigation pertained to the privatization of BC Rail. Erik Bornmann along with former business partner Brian Kieran are expected to testify for the crown against these former officials. The nature of their testimony is the subject of a court sealing order. In the ensuing information vacuum there has been rampant and often fanciful speculation as to the nature of each witness's role in this matter. The trial is presently scheduled for Spring 2007.
