Originally constructed and published in 2020 by Fabian Corbin. Solve some of his more recent puzzles at cruciverbology.com. (Also, Fabian's lived in Toronto since 2023 and is therefore duly embarrassed at the US-centrism of this puzzle. Should he write a Doug Ford-style bribery themed puzzle next?)
