At a media availability in downtown Toronto, Morneau defended his government’s handling of a controversy, which led to the resignation of two cabinet ministers (Jody Wilson-Raybould and Jane Philpott) and two of the most powerful unelected figures in Canadian politics (Gerry Butts and Michael Wernick).
“We’ve been pretty clear all the way through this discussion that it’s important that we have a robust discussion within our government to protect Canadians’ futures, to think about Canadian jobs, to think about pensioners’ rights, this will continue to be important,” Morneau said.
“It’s also important that we live by the rule of law. The prime minister has been very clear that we have robust discussions and we’ve always ensured to act appropriately. No regrets.”
