VIDEO WilsonRaybould says She Received Veiled Threats on SNCLavalin

Former justice minister Jody Wilson-Raybould says she came under relentless pressure, including veiled threats, from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, his senior staff, the top public servant and the finance minister's office.
Wilson-Raybould told the House of Commons justice committee it was all aimed at getting her to stop a criminal prosecution of Montreal engineering giant SNC-Lavalin.
The company is facing fraud and corruption charges after an investigation was launched in April of 2012 into allegations that millions of dollars in kickbacks were paid to Saadi Gadhafi, the son of Libyan dictator Moammar Gadhafi. CLICK HERE for a timelime of events related to the case.
And she says she believes she was shuffled out of the prestigious justice portfolio to veterans affairs in January because she refused to give in.
Wilson-Raybould made the stunning and detailed accusations in testimony Wednesday afternoon before the committee.
Her lengthy appearance broke three weeks of silence on the affair that has shaken the government, prompting her resignation from cabinet and the departure of Trudeau's most trusted adviser.
Wilson-Raybould told the committee she was ``hounded'' to end the prosecution for months after the director of public prosecutions, Kathleen Roussel, had rejected the idea of negotiating a remediation agreement with SNC-Lavalin.
She also told the commitee it continued long after she had unequivocally declared that she would not direct Roussel to reverse her decision.
But Wilson-Raybould admitted she didn't consider resigning at the time and didn't directly raise her concerns with Trudeau after September 17th, when she first informed him she believed it would be inappropriate for her to intervene in the SNC-Lavalin matter.
She says the pressure campaign culminated on December 19th with what she deemed were three "veiled threats" that she could lose her job from the clerk of the Privy Council, Michael Wernick, who last week told the committee he believes there was no improper pressure applied to Wilson-Raybould.
Wilson-Raybould was shuffled out of the justice portfolio in January and resigned from cabinet earlier this month, after a story broke that she had been pressured inappropriately to arrange a ``remediation agreement'' that would have headed off the prosecution.
In her testimony, Wilson-Raybould says the decision not to pursue such an agreement was made in September, but she and her staff heard repeatedly from Trudeau's office and Finance Minister Bill Morneau's office after that, trying to find ways to help SNC-Lavalin.
She says she was told repeatedly the decision was up to her, but attempts to talk her into a remediation agreement were relentless.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he's reconsidering Wilson-Raybould's future in the Liberal party after her bombshell testimony.
Trudeau said Wednesday night in Montreal that he completely disagrees with Wilson-Raybould's characterization of events.
