Episode description

A repost of one of the most popular Canadaland episodes ever, from way back in 2014. 

The Irvings are secretive billionaires who have a monopoly on New Brunswick's news media. Journalist Jacques Poitras, author of Irving vs Irving, describes how the family subtly suppresses criticism and destroys competitors.
