Labour minister calls Jody Wilson-Raybould's phone recording 'unethical' cdnpoli
Left to right: Jody Wilson-Raybould, Patty Hajdu and Carolyn Bennett listen during the announcement of the inquiry into Murdered and Missing Indigenous Women at the Museum of History in Gatineau, Que. on Aug. 3, 2016.
In a CBC interview Sunday, Hajdu said she has never recorded a colleague's phone conversation and would never do so covertly."If you're going to record a conversation and it's between colleagues, I think it's the responsible, ethical thing to do to advise the person on the other end of the phone that you are recording.''In the call, Wernick repeatedly asks Wilson-Raybould why she was not using all the tools at her disposal on the SNC-Lavalin case.
The former attorney general testified earlier this month that she believes she was moved out of the justice portfolio to Veterans Affairs in a mid-January cabinet shuffle as punishment for refusing to succumb to relentless pressure last fall from Trudeau, his senior staff, Wernick and others to intervene in the SNC-Lavalin case. She resigned from cabinet a month later.
"I, personally, don't feel comfortable, personally, with a colleague who may be recording me without my knowledge,'' she said.provided information to the justice committee Sunday in response to materials filed last week by Wilson-Raybould.
