Lisa Raitt Slams Liberals For “Shameful” Letter Trying To Shut Down Justice Committee

“If they are so certain then they should have the Justice Committee in the open. So all eyes will be on them as they tell Canadians that they don’t deserve the answers they are looking for. Anything less is an act of cowardice.”

Lisa Raitt – who has been extremely effective in demanding answers for Canadians during the PMO SNC-Lavalin Scandal hearings – is slamming the Liberal members of the Committee who tried shutting it down.

She made the comments in a series of Tweets:

“Well. I’m away from twitter for a couple of hours and this happens. THREAD”

“The letter is shameful. The Liberal members are prioritizing their party over the people of Canada.”

“2 cabinet ministers left the table because they could no longer abide by cabinet solidarity.”

“The careers of the Clerk of the Privy Council and the Principal Secretary to the PM have been burned to ashes.”

“And yet we don’t know *why*. WHY @Puglaasleft. WHY @janephilpott left. WHY @gmbutts left. WHY Michael Wernick left.”

“And this matters. Because their leaving has raised valid questions about the ethics and conduct of the office of the Prime Minister.”

“Each member has signed their name and individually will be accountable to their constituents and to their profession.”

“If they are so certain then they should have the Justice Committee in the open. So all eyes will be on them as they tell Canadians that they don’t deserve the answers they are looking for.”

“Anything less is an act of cowardice.”

“Act of cowardice” is exactly right.

Behind closed doors, the Trudeau Liberals are shutting things down and denying answers to Canadians. That’s how a dictatorship acts, not a democratic government.
