When confronted by Kaplan about the unexplained payment, Mulroney vehemently denied any wrongdoing: "Anyone who says anything about [the money] will be in for one fuck of a fight." At the root of Kaplan's investigation is a secret trial and its stunning revelations - information that nearly escaped public attention. Only now, years later, is the former prime minister facing a public inquiry that threatens to permanently derail his reputation.Political corruptionCanadaCorruption investigationCanadaAirbus aircraftCanadaPolitics and government1980-Political corruptionCorruption investigationAirbus aircraft.971.064/7Kaplan William1957-1511269MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910782069803321A secret trial3750364UNINA
