The Canadian Red Cross and Human Traficking - Part 2


Following our phone-in interview with Virgil Grandfield on March 25th, 2010, we had the pleasure to welcome him live in studio on April 1, 2010. Virgil is fighting actively for the hundreds of workers who were enslaved by sub-contractors hired by the Canadian Red Cross following the 2004 Indonesian tsunami and requests that they be compensated.

The Canadian Red Cross and Human Traficking


On March 25, 2010, Canadian Red Cross whistleblower Virgil Grandfield joined for us a telephone interview during which he shared his incredible story of how he came to discover and denounce human trafficking and slave labour use that took place in Indonesia following the 2004 tsunami during international aid reconstruction, the Canadian Red Cross' cover-up and how he undertook to investigate the situation himself.



Virgril Grandfield will join us again on April 1, 2010 live in studio. Make sure to tune in!
