So.
Who knew that, in the wake of Darth Vader's dismantling of the team that was tasked with rooting out casino corruption, there was Whaling going on from the very beginning?
Well...
It turns out that some the folks who were tasked to investigate such goings on back in the days of Darth knew exactly what was going down. Unfortunately, those folks were silenced, and worse.
As per usua,l Sam Cooper of Global has the story. Here is his lede:
Several former investigators who say they lost jobs in B.C.’s casino industry for whistle-blowing are questioning whether some B.C. officials deliberately allowed government-regulated casinos to be used as hubs for money laundering.
In an exclusive investigation, Global News has conducted extensive interviews with the casino industry sources, and also reviewed documents and court testimony from several of the sources.
The sources pointed to allegations of “willful blindness” of dirty cash transactions in B.C. casinos. And some questioned whether a “conspiracy” or corruption has occurred, that would allow dirty funds estimated by Global News at up to $2 billion, to flow through Lottery Corp. casinos...
Imagine that!

And, just in case you missed it, Laila is back and she's lighting Darth's files on fire and tossing around cinder blocks laced with brimstone on this issue.

Heads up one and all.
CTV W.5. are airing this weekend "The Laundromat" RE: money laundering in Vancouver.
Lets see what reaction this generates from the powers that be, now what they have been trying to tamp down goes national.
Keith--
Will be interesting to see...
In the past, however, it seems that only the NYT can shame the local proMedia club into action.
