Quebec’s anti-corruption squad has arrested one of the five men being sought in the case of a billion-dollar project to build a Montreal mega-hospital – leaving Arthur Porter as the only one left with a warrant out for his arrest. Jeremy Morris was arrested at Montreal-Trudeau Airport Monday night as he arrived on a flight from the Bahamas. Morris is the administrator of a Bahamas-based investment company and is set to appear in a Montreal court on Tuesday to be formally charged. Morris and Porter, the former head of Canada’s spy overseer, are among five people wanted on numerous charges – including fraud, breach of trust and document forgery – linked to the $1.3-billion McGill University Hospital Centre (MUHC) project.
