In this gripping episode, whistleblower Kirk Riese takes us on a journey through the retaliation and repression he faced after exposing corruption within Canada’s Armed Forces. As a former member of the Canadian Rangers, Kirk vividly describes the disturbing consequences he faced, from unexplained financial penalties to losing his position and facing intimidation. He is joined by former police officer Donald Best, who helps dissect the evidence, as they delve into the obstacles within a system designed to silence dissent.
Kirk discusses his efforts to bring transparency to the government's handling of military finances and how his reports have been met with continuous attempts to discredit and suppress his claims. This is a rare insight into the reality of whistleblowing within Canada’s defence sector and the personal toll it can take.
