by Rafe Mair

tagged: rich & famous
Description

This is the story of the last of the broadcasters willing, nay eager, to hold authority's feet to the fire. Rafe Mair combined his experience as a lawyer and cabinet minister along with his deep love of his province and the City of Vancouver to build a radio career that angered many, especially politicians, but attracted huge audiences.
