028: Steven Bittle
04/12/21 • 55 min
Dr. Steven Bittle is an Associate Professor of Criminology at the University of Ottawa and an expert on corporate crime. We discuss how so many of the Canadians who have died from COVID have been elderly residents of for-profit long term care homes. At what point would the death of so many of a corporation’s customers be considered a crime? Steven walks us through this question, and explains what would have to happen for a long term care corporation to be prosecuted for a crime.
Hosted by Cameron Graham, Professor of Accounting at York University. Produced by Cameron Graham and Bertland Imai of York’s Learning Technology Services.
