McParland: Justin Trudeau’s Liberals are acting like someone caught in an ice storm who won’t admit it’s cold. The more the country raises questions, the harder they insist there’s nothing to answer. They’ve turned the SNC-Lavalin affair into a scandal about a scandal: they simply refuse to admit a scandal exists.
Even as the story of former attorney general Jody Wilson-Raybould and her treatment by the prime minister lumbers through its second month, they continue to insist there is nothing to discuss. The supposed non-story has divided the caucus, turned Liberals on Liberals, sent Justin Trudeau’s reputation tumbling and dominated every news cycle, with no hint the prime minister comprehends what he’s unleashed.
