Michael Wernick

I am disappointed to be accused of partisanship by people who have never met me. My career is on the public record. I have held the highest security clearances of this country for many years. I was named to Deputy Minister level positions by Prime Ministers Chretien, Martin, Harper and Trudeau, said Michael Wernick in his opening statement to a parliamentary committee on March 6, 2019.

Conservative Sen. David Tkachuk says he won't apologize for comments he made at a pro-pipeline rally in Ottawa, calling criticism that he was inciting violence "manufactured outrage."

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will be pressured on Monday, February 26, 2019, to testify at a House of Commons committee looking into allegations the prime minister and his staff pressured former attorney general Jody Wilson-Raybould to stop a criminal prosecution of Montreal-based engineering giant SNC-Lavalin.

Canada's top civil servant said he fears "someone is going to be shot" during the upcoming federal election campaign in blunt opening comments to a committee investigating the government's role in the SNC-Lavalin controversy.
