Welcome to the Alex Pierson Podcast where our host Alex Pierson dives into the big stories of the day and does all the heavy lifting for you.
In this episode Alex first closes in on the 2nd assassination attempt of former President Donald Trump by speaking with someone who knows just how difficult it can be to be security to upper levels of government, Wayne Black. Wayne is the President of Wayne Black and Associates and previously provided security to former Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld and explains why protecting high officials is a tricky business.
Next, Alex is honoured to speak with the former chief of the defence staff, General (retired) Rick Hillier. Gen. Hillier and Alex talk about his new group of non-Jewish members who are advocating for the end of surging anti-semitism in Canada.
And finally, our host takes a trip down memory lane and returns to her hometown of Hamilton with local historian Robin McKee. Robin and Alex look into the long-abandoned Century Manor, one of the last standing remains of Canada's historical mental institutions, that is now slated to be converted into supportive housing.
