Canadian Scandal
**NEW EPISODES EVERY 2 WEEKS**Canada has a reputation for being peaceful, polite, and a little boring — the land of friendly neighbors, free health care, hockey obsessions, and people who say “sorry” when you bump into them. Basically, the well-behaved upstairs neighbor to the U.S.But that clean-cut image is only part of the story.Beneath the snow and smiles, Canada has a darker side — one filled with scandals, crimes, corruption, cover-ups, and a long list of things the country has quietly tried to forget. Canadian Scandal: True Crimes and Dirty Secrets from the Great White North is the podcast that brings those buried stories to light.Hosted by Canadian-born Jeff Walker, each episode dives into a tale that didn’t make it into the history books. Some are serious, some are absurd, and some are the kind that make you say, “How have I never heard about this before?”It’s part true crime, part history lesson, and part national reality check — a behind-the-curtain look at a country that might have a lot more skeletons in the igloo than anyone expected.Get ready to see Canada in a whole new light.Canadian Scandal is researched, written, edited, and narrated by Jeff Walker featuring music & sound effects licensed through Soundstripe.Follow us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and anywhere else you listen to podcasts or listen at WalkerNewMedia.com/ShadyCanada
