Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has denied pressuring RCMP Commissioner Brenda Lucki to release information on the mass shooting investigation in Nova Scotia to help advance his gun control agenda.

“Absolutely not,” he said, when asked by reporters about the issue while speaking to the press in Kigali, Rwanda, on June 23 during a 10-day trip overseas.
