  • Summary

  • The shooting of Slovakia’s prime minister highlights the growing threat of violence towards politicians. So what does it take to be an officer of a VIP detail for a high-profile politician? ‘The West Block’ host Mercedes Stephenson gets exclusive access to the RCMP program to train protective policing officers to keep politicians of all political stripes safe from the rising threat of political violence. Plus, Stephenson interviews former correctional investigator of Canada Howard Sapers about the secrecy surrounding the prison transfer of notorious convicted murderer Luka Magnotta to a medium-security institution. Sapers also addresses reports of increased prison violence and concerns over Canada’s parole system. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
