Prime Minister Justin Trudeau delivers remarks at the National Press Theatre in Ottawa on Thursday, March 7, 2019. But the prime minister made no apologies as he discussed the issue at a nationally televised news conference. “In regards to standing up for jobs and defending the integrity of our rule of law, I continue to say there was no inappropriate pressure,” Trudeau said. “We considered that she was still open to hearing different arguments and different approaches on what her decision could be,” Trudeau said. “What we see now is that she wasn’t prepared to change her mind.”Trudeau said Wilson-Raybould did not come to him to express her concerns about inappropriate pressure and said he wishes she had.
