The Corruption Episode! (On the Greenbelt Land Take-Outs, and more...)
Our October episode focuses on the scandal that was the Greenbelt land take-outs, the public backlash, and the fall out.
There is the immediate problems around how land was given to developers, and there are more pervasive problems around democratic accountability, around how our governments make decisions, and about the attitudes of those entrusted with making decisions on all of our behalf.
All of this and more is discussed by Margaret and Adam.
