Prime Minister Justin Trudeau delivers opening remarks during a Liberal donor appreciation event at Inn at the Forks in Winnipeg on March 25, 2019.Justin Trudeau will be focusing on the training benefits in the recently released budget as he meets with labour leaders in Winnipeg today.
“We can look at the populism around the world, the politics of carefully chosen dog whistles – or in some cases megaphones, these days – the politics of divisions and attacks,” Trudeau said to the crowd of supporters. “Canadians might have a choice and pick that if they want to go with the Andrew Scheer and Stephen Harper approach to politics.”Trudeau didn’t speak about the SNC-Lavalin controversy, but alluded to it by saying the Conservatives “have nothing to say about our budget.
Earlier in the day, SNC-Lavalin posted a statement on the company’s website walking back a statement by its CEO, who said last week he never cited the protection of 9,000 Canadian jobs as a reason the construction giant should be granted a remediation agreement. Trudeau has repeatedly held up potential job losses as the main reason he and other top officials spoke with former attorney general Jody Wilson-Raybould. She resigned from cabinet last month and has suggested political considerations – not jobs – were behind the Prime Minister’s Office pressuring her to make an agreement.
