The police raids conducted at McGill University Health Centre headquarters Tuesday morning threaten to tarnish one of Canada’s landmark private-sector bids to build public infrastructure, while also enhancing the climate of suspicion surrounding Quebec’s construction industry. The spotlight has already prompted the province to launch a corruption inquiry and contributed to this month’s ouster of Jean Charest’s Liberal government.
