Show Notes
It's that time of the week where we take a look past the veil into the stories that don't get the attention they deserve in Ottawa. Alex Pierson checks in with Managing Editor of Blacklock's Reporter Tom Korski.
Alex and Tom talk about why Defence Minister Anita Anand's husband, the director of LifeLabs, got hundreds of millions of dollars in government contracts, one alone was $111 million.
