Oh boy, you guys have politicians on the files??

Yes, but:

In the documents, the redacted interlocutor asks Epstein: “did you meet the Irvings?”

Epstein replies “No,” with the unnamed person then writing back that they’re not planning to work for “the crazy Irvings.”

A spokesperson for Irving, who now heads a health-care technology company, told Brunswick News on Monday the former oil exec never had contact with Epstein.

Has a few Canadians not popped up in those files? I doubt politicians but rich people.

Thus far, surprisingly few. Actually alarmingly few when you think about it. Either our corpos are shockingly straight laced, or Epstein had a competing network in our zone.

It's probably more a question of power and reach. Epstein saw nothing to gain by getting Canadians into his debt.

... Yes... That's it... Pay no attention to the fact that we are one of the money-laundering capitals of the world. Shhh... We're very nice...

Maybe he has enough laundering avenue from his US friends.
