Greg cites multiple studies on the topic, and explains how disinformation really works. More from Greg: https://www.wowt.news/

Shane Hewitt is joined by military expert and Senior Fellow at the Macdonald-Laurier Institute, Richard Shimooka who talks about the story of a former senior federal procurement official who warns that Lockheed Martin’s control of the warplane’s source code makes Ottawa vulnerable to the U.S. President as Trump could block software upgrades for F-35s
