OTTAWA — RCMP investigators say they’re not sure why the Mark Norman case collapsed because they haven’t seen the new evidence that led to the stay of a breach-of-trust charge against the naval officer. The case revolved around a November 2015 decision by the newly elected Liberal government to reconsider a $700-million contract the Harper Conservatives awarded to Quebec-based Davie Shipbuilding. It’s up to the federal prosecution service to decide whether to share the information with the RCMP, MacLean said. We follow the evidence and we seek the truthThe Mounties insist their work on the Norman file was thorough, independent and highly professional. Justice Minister David Lametti said Tuesday that each component of the justice system did its job in the Norman case.
