Paul Hellyer, who served as Defense Minister in Canada between 1963 and 1967, recently stated that the Illuminati is real and is secretly directing the world, benefiting according to him "trillions" from the oil industry.
Paul Hellyer, Canada's former defense minister, is believed to be the top politician who has openly supported the theory of conspiracy.
The 94-year-old said the Illuminati members are rich and continue to do unnecessary wars, focusing on profits instead of helping the planet.
Hellyer said of the Lazarus Effect podcast, which believes the group has technology to change the effects of climate change, but will not do so, as many of its members are millionaires of the oil industry.
The Illuminati is said to be a group of powerful people that conspiracy theorists say secretly controls the world economy. Meanwhile, according to Hellyer, many of its wealthy members are invested in the oil industry.
