The RCMP yesterday raided the Victoria home of Michel Fournier and his wife Judith Barkley-Fournier. The investigation relates to "allegations of bribery payments paid to Fournier by SNC- Lavalin," said RCMP spokeswoman Brigitte Mineault, in a statement. SNC-Lavalin and its subsidiaries were charged last year with corruption and fraud tied to the global engineering giant's construction business in Libya. "The payments were made during the time the contract was awarded to SNC-Lavalin … for repairs of the Jacques-Cartier Bridge in Montreal."
