The Alberta government says it hasn’t found any records of emails that could substantiate the allegations that a staffer for Alberta Premier Danielle Smith had contacted prosecutors in an attempt to influence their handling of a case related to a group charged during the Coutts border blockade last year.
The Justice Department said in a statement that the non-partisan Alberta Public Service conducted a review over the weekend, in search of any emails sent to or received by the relevant prosecutors and staff from the Premier’s Office over a four-month period.
