Confessions of a Dirty Tricks Operative. Meet David Wallace, political fixer. After decades in the game he says he's getting out, telling all, and dumping his files in public. The result is the #KlondikePapers conspiracy theory. But are the allegations true? And why is he really implicating himself, and so many others? A wild, true story.

Introducing: What Is Happening Here (Official Trailer)
Some say Canada is currently in the throes of a horrible surge of anti-Jew hatred. Others say that anti-zionism is being conflated with antisemitism.

Introducing: The Copernic Affair
The Copernic Affair is available now, wherever you get your podcasts. (https://canadaland.lnk.to/copernic-affair)
The life of an unassuming sociology professor in Canada gets turned upside down when he is accused of carrying out a 1980 bomb attack on a synagogue in Paris. Hassan Diab says heʼs innocent, but French investigators are determined to prove otherwise.
Journalists Dana Ballout (https://danaballout.com/) and Alex Atack (https://alexatack.com/) take listeners through the twists and turns of this extraordinary story, all the while asking…
Is Hassan Diab guilty, or is he a scapegoat? And what if one person’s justice means committing an injustice to another?
You can become a Canadaland supporter (https://canadaland.com/join/) to listen to the whole series early and ad-free.

Chapter Three: The Trojan Horse
Thanks to David Wallace and Richard Marsh, the Klondike Papers blew up online - and nothing garnered more attention than Wallace’s claim that there was a plot to get rid of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
Could it be true? Cherise and Jesse try to get to the bottom of what actually happened, and in doing so discover a complex network of Brethren business with extensive political connections around the globe.
