She says she’s still working with her lawyer on what she can say.
Jody Wilson-Raybould was confronted by reporters today on Parliament Hill.
She was asked about the SNC-Lavalin scandal, and asked if Trudeau pressured her on the issue.
Here’s what she said:
“Former attorney general Jody Wilson-Raybould speaks briefly w/ reporters on Parliament Hill: asked if she was pressured re SNC-Lavalin case, says “I’m still working w/ my lawyer”; asked if she’s still in Liberal caucus, replies “I’m a Liberal member of Parliament.”

Jody Wilson-Raybould: "The rules and laws around privilege, around confidentiality, around my responsibility as a member of parliament, my ethical and professional responsibilities as a lawyer are layered and incredibly complicated, so I'm still working with my lawyer." #cdnpoli pic.twitter.com/5aawsBl3IE

Wilson-Raybould answered quickly, and then got onto an elevator, clearly not ready to share her story yet.
With the Trudeau government increasingly desperate, they wouldn’t hesitate to throw the full brutal force of the state against Jody Wilson-Raybould. So, she’s got a former Supreme Court Justice to advise her and ensure she is on solid legal footing.
Canadians are eagerly awaiting what she has to say when she’s ready to say it.
