Chapter Three: The Trojan Horse

Ep. 3

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. 


Written and reported by Jesse Brown and Cherise Seucharan

Audio editing and sound design by Tristan Capacchione

Original music by Nathan Burley

Additional music by Audio Network

Editorial Assistance by Sarah Lawrynuik

Executive Producer, Jesse Brown
