from 10/3: Canada Covered · host Postmedia
The night of Sept 30, 2017 will be burned into the memory of Edmontonians for years. That night, a man ran down a police officer before stabbing him, then used a U-Haul truck as a weapon on a busy downtown street. More than three years after the attacks, there are still questions left unanswered. Edmonton Journal justice reporter Jonny Wakefield joins Dave to discuss new details uncovered in the case, why, despite the appearance of an act of terrorism those charges were not pursued, and why we may never get a full picture of the motivations behind these crimes.
