Oh,,,, I forgot to mention what happened when SNC Lavelin finally had to
go to court on the corruption charges...

Former SNC-Lavalin executive Sami Bebawi was sentenced to 8.5 years in
jail and the company was fined $280 Million.


But sure.... Trudeau was right. They should have just gone with the DPA
and give them a little slap on the wrist. I just can't figure why, if
Brian Greespan was right, that Trudeau was within his rights to pressure
the AG to pressure the prosecutor, why he denied it for so long. He
denied the meetings. He denied the comments. He denied the pressure....
but later admitted it all.
