Show Notes

For the week of April 4, 2021:

Vancouver city council opened the door to bidding for the 2030 Winter Olympics on March 31. But it was not unanimous. Hear two councillors, Jean Swanson and Colleen Hardwick, speak passionately against a report that recommended the first step to bringing the Winter Games back to the 2010 host city, and hear Mayor Kennedy Stewart’s defiant reply.

Calvin Chrustie testified March 30 at the Cullen Commission (CullenCommission.ca)

When Vancouver invited the world to compete and party in 2010, criminals also came. Hear testimony from the Cullen Commission from a former senior RCMP money laundering and transnational organized crime investigator. Calvin Chrustie reveals how Chinese triads, Mexican drug cartels and Middle Eastern terrorists moved drugs and money through Vancouver.

Plus commentary and Pacific Northwest and Pacific Rim headlines.
