Trudeau, ministers deny improper pressure

Cabinet ministers rallied around Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Thursday, a day after his former attorney general testified that Trudeau had inappropriately tried to pressure her to avoid prosecution of a major Canadian engineering company in order to save jobs — a case that has shaken the government in an election year.

Popular Foreign Minister Chrystia Freeland told the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation that "the prime minister would never apply improper pressure" and expressed "100 percent faith" in him.

Finance Minister Bill Morneau denied meddling, saying it was "entirely appropriate" for his staff to talk with the justice minister's staff about the economic effects of their decisions.

Ex-Attorney General and Justice Minister Jody Wilson-Raybould testified Wednesday that Trudeau, his staff and other officials imposed inappropriate pressure on her to avoid criminal prosecution of Montreal-based SNC-Lavalin in a case involving allegations of corruption in Libya. She said they pushed for an agreement that would let the company pay reparations but avoid a conviction.

If convicted criminally, the company would be banned from receiving any federal government business for a decade. SNC-Lavalin is a major employer in Quebec, with about 3,400 employees in the province, 9,000 employees in Canada and more than 50,000 worldwide.
 
Trudeau's personal popularity has recently dropped to 35%. His Liberal party is also affected and doubts about their victory in the October general elections are mounting:

"Five of the six opinion surveys that have been taken since the news broke show that the Liberals have slipped to second place in voter intentions.

And CBC's aggregated Poll Tracker now has the federal Conservatives sitting almost two points up on the Liberals, with 35.8 per cent support compared to 33.9 per cent."
