Justin Trudeau said Tuesday that he’s looking forward the former minister’s testimony
OTTAWA — Jody Wilson-Raybould will finally give her side of the story in the SNC-Lavalin affair at a meeting of the House of Commons justice committee Wednesday afternoon.
The agreements allow companies to avoid a criminal prosecution if they admit wrongdoing, pay fines and restitution and plan to prevent future bad behaviour.The goal is to protect the employees and innocent clients or customers of a corporation from being negatively impacted if a company is convicted of an economic crime like bribery and fraud. If SNC-Lavalin is convicted, it could be barred from bidding on government contracts for up to a decade, which could cripple the company financially.
