A non-governmental watchdog organization is asking for clarification on why the RCMP had said in a correspondence to the group in May that it was investigating the prime minister and members of his cabinet in relation to the 2018 SNC-Lavalin affair, only to later deny it.
“The RCMP’s story doesn’t add up because they are contradicting themselves about when the allegations were being investigated, and when decisions were made to end the investigation,” Duff Conacher, Co-founder of Democracy Watch, said in a statement on June 20.
