supplier is a _servant_, i.e. a programming language object. It is not
a CORBA object. You must activate the object in a POA, and use the
resulting object reference instead. Use something like

  # Get the root POA
  poa = orb.resolve_initial_references("RootPOA")

  # Activate the POA so it services incoming requests
  poa._get_the_POAManager().activate()

  # Activate our servant in the POA
  poa.activate_object(supplier)
  
  # Get the resulting object reference
  supplier_obj = supplier._this()

  # Use the objref
  proxy_consumer.connect_push_supplier(supplier_obj)


Cheers,

Duncan.
