The Breakdown With Nate Pike
Time for another look at the biggest political scandal in Alberta's history! That Danielle Smith effectively threw $80 million down the drain in an attempt to own the feds by trying to buy childrens medication is largely a matter of public record. But it's the story beneath the surface that begins to show the real problems. There's been a lot of speculation as to who did what and when, but in this episode we are able to finally reveal the results of a FOIP request that seems to confirm a lot of the allegations and that potentially has huge implications for Albertans! If you're able to support our legal defense fund to fight back against the $6 Million lawsuit against us by Sam Mraiche, the man who imported Vanch masks and the Turkish Tylenot as well as who hosted MLA's and Ministers in his skybox as he had business with the government...
