Jody Wilson-Raybould says she will provide a written statement and copies of text messages and emails to the Commons justice committee that shut down its probe of the SNC-Lavalin affair. In a letter today to the committee chair, Liberal MP Anthony Housefather, Wilson-Raybould said she would respond to a request to provide copies of texts and emails she cited in her Feb. 27 testimony before the committee. He said the existing waiver allows her to speak "entirely and completely" about the matter, and noted she spoke for four hours before the justice committee. Caucus patience thinsIn the Liberal caucus, patience with Wilson-Raybould and Philpott appears to be wearing thin. She repeated calls for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to grant a full waiver of cabinet confidence and solicitor-client privilege so she can say more.
