Attorney General David Lametti says he will resist any attempt to pressure him on the SNC-Lavalin criminal prosecution.
“The prime minister has never tried to direct me,” said Lametti. “If someone else tries to direct me then they’ll hear about it.”
He said he wouldn’t comment on the details of the SNC-Lavalin case, but said he did receive “routine briefings” on the file when he became the minister. His spokesman confirmed to The Canadian Press that those briefings included a breakfast meeting with some of Trudeau’s aides where the discussion was largely based on the contents of the departmental briefing book prepared for Lametti.
