Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister still fails to answer the question.
He claimed for so long that he needed to allow SNC-Lavalin to avoid conviction so it could continue to have federal contracts. We now know from his own minister's admission that a simple policy change would allow SNC-Lavalin to go on getting contracts and employing people. That cannot be his real motivation.
Obviously, the Prime Minister was protecting someone else. If this is not about protecting jobs, who was he protecting?
