Investigation: What Mark Carney Won’t Say About Brookfield

We have been hearing a lot about Prime Minister Mark Carney and a company called Brookfield Asset Management. That's the company he left when he entered politics.

Today's episode is not a look back at Carney’s time at Brookfield. It's about right now. Because among all of those claims and arguments about Carney and Brookfield and the past, there's something else that hasn’t made as many headlines. An allegation about an ongoing connection between Carney and Brookfield.

Is he still financially connected to Brookfield in any way, or is he not? Our reporter, Julian Abraham, tried to answer that question, and by the end of today's episode, you're going to know what Mark Carney isn't telling you about Brookfield.
