Can we fix the way concert tickets are sold in this country?
Superstar Taylor Swift had 9 sold out shows in Canada this year and while some Swifties were able to snag tickets via Ticketmaster, others weren't so lucky. Many opted to take the third-party route and ended up spending outrageous amounts of money for a chance to see the show. Is there a better way to buy concert tickets? On this episode of the Big Story we talk to Shannon Mckarney from Etobicoke, Ontario who's started a petition on Change.org calling for the regulation of ticket re-selling.
