Jody Wilson-Raybould of the We Wai Kai Nation served as Canada‘s first Indigenous Minister of Justice & Attorney General. In her excellent memoir, she writes not only about her ethical principles surrounding the SNC Lavalin scandal that resulted in her getting booted from the Liberal caucus, as well as other underhanded pressures—approve this pipeline!—from the Prime Minister‘s Office. #Audiobook read by the author. #Canadian
