Linda McQuaig is a prominent, award-winning journalist with the Toronto Star covering Canadian politics. She does it with her trademark combination of solid research, keen analysis, irreverence, passion and wit.

Her newest book is Holding the Bully’s Coat – Canada and the US Empire. McQuaig calls another recent one her best – It’s the Crude, Dude: war, big oil, and the fight for the planet.
The program will focus on McQuaig’s writing and her current work.
