This time Justin Trudeau may not come out so lucky. Justin Trudeau is now under a scandal concerning a Quebec company that was under a fraud investigation by former Attorney General Jodie Wilson-Raybould. It is a question if Justin Trudeau or someone close to him told Wilson-Raybould to stop the investigation for political reasons. This can be something to do with Justin Trudeau’s reelection or not wanting to lose even more jobs after the recent GM Oshawa closure. In anyway, this could be bad for Justin Trudeau’s reputation. Now there is a motive for Trudeau to do this and it is clear that he did not want this to go viral, which it did. Wilson-Raybould said that she was told to stop the investigation. She was concerned why she should and then resigned. She felt like it was obstruction of Justice. I feel like this would have really been bad for Trudeau either way but I think that this would have gone better if he let Wilson-Raybould continue to investigate and maybe shut down the employer and lose 9,000 Quebec jobs, where he thrives in support and probably likes to keep it that way. This now makes him very untrustworthy in my opinion to Canadians, who do not want to see their Prime Minister in a scandal. It is my opinion that this is a scandal dealing with campaigning more than it is him doing this out of nowhere. I believe that with all the pressure on Trudeau he decided to make a decision and it was probably the wrong one to make. This makes a lack of trust with voters who still haven’t decided who they are going to vote for come election day. Conservative leader Andrew Scheer has already called for the resignation of Justin Trudeau and he has a good point. Either way I think that this scandal is looking really good on Scheer. Even though Trudeau says it might have been a communication mistake, I believe Wilson-Raybould who said she was immediately told to stop the investigation. Trudeau also has motive, while Wilson-Raybould does not. This could hurt Trudeau more than he knows and he now has to make some very good moves and stay out of the media as much as possible to win. This election, in my opinion just got a whole lot closer with only 7 months left until election day.
