The Liberal-dominated House of Commons justice committee voted down opposition bids Wednesday to hear from the former attorney general and key members of the Prime Minister's Office on the escalating SNC-Lavalin controversy. Instead, Liberal MPs chose to study some of the legal issues at the heart of the matter. Boissonnault's motion invited Justice Minister David Lametti, Privy Council clerk Michael Wernick and the deputy minister of justice to testify. The justice committee is not a "sophisticated legal book club," he said. These are the Liberal MPs who sit on the Justice Committee.
