Justin Trudeau responded on Canada Day to allegations he groped a female reporter 18 years ago at a B.C. festival by saying he doesn't remember any "negative interactions" from that time. The issue has plagued the prime minister since Frank Magazine republished a 2000 editorial from the Creston Valley Advance that accused Trudeau of "inappropriately 'handling' the reporter while she was on assignment." The National Post spoke with both the then publisher and the then editor of the small newspaper as part of its investigation into the alleged incident. On this episode of 10/3 host Dave Breakenridge is joined by Post reporters Adrian Humphreys and Marie-Danielle Smith.
