SNC-Lavalin

A former SNC-Lavalin executive and his lawyer had obstruction of justice charges against them stayed on Friday, February 15, 2019, on the grounds it took too long to bring the case to trial.

Former justice minister Jody Wilson-Raybould angered senators by refusing to give testimony on a change to the Criminal Code that is now at the centre of allegations that she was improperly pressured to help SNC-Lavalin avoid criminal prosecution.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says it was former justice minister Jody Wilson-Raybould who asked him in the fall if he planned to tell her what to do in the prosecution of Quebec engineering giant SNC-Lavalin — a conversation, he says, that ended with him telling her any decision was hers alone.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is expected to face a fresh round of questions on the SNC-Lavalin controversy today when he hands out some money to a technology firm.

Quebec Premier Francois Legault says he wants the federal government to settle with engineering firm SNC-Lavalin "as soon as possible" in order to protect jobs and the company's corporate headquarters in Montreal.

Indigenous parliamentarians say Jody Wilson-Raybould's controversial exit from the cabinet doesn't signal the end of reconciliation efforts between the federal government and Indigenous Peoples.

Liberals faced accusations of a coverup on Wednesday, February 13, 2019, after they agreed to hold limited committee hearings into an allegation that former attorney general Jody Wilson-Raybould was improperly pressured to help SNC-Lavalin avoid criminal prosecution.

A former vice-president of SNC-Lavalin facing charges of fraud and bribery in connection with the company's dealings in Libya is trying to get his case thrown out due to what his lawyers claim are unreasonable delays.

Jody Wilson-Raybould’s resignation from cabinet does not look good for Justin Trudeau’s government, no matter how you twist and turn it. 

Quebec prosecutors are working with the RCMP on the possibility of new criminal charges against SNC-Lavalin tied to a contract to refurbish Montreal's Jacques Cartier Bridge, court documents show.

At a short appearance in Sudbury, Ont., the prime minister dodged a question about what the former justice minister told him about why she quit his cabinet this week, leaving the microphone rather than answering.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is facing a backlash both within and outside his own party after Jody Wilson-Raybould's sudden resignation from his cabinet.

The Public Prosecution Service of Canada says it never sought or received instructions from the government over the breach-of-trust case against Vice-Admiral Mark Norman.

Jody Wilson-Raybould has resigned from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's cabinet amid allegations his office pressured her to abandon a corruption and fraud prosecution of engineering and construction company SNC-Lavalin.

Vice-Admiral Mark Norman's legal team has raised questions about the independence of federal prosecutors after the Crown and lawyers from the department that supports Prime Minister Justin Trudeau spoke several times last year about "trial strategy."
