A soon-to-be-released book written by corruption expert Frank Vogl, the founder of Transparency International and a former World Bank official, excoriates Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his Liberal government over the 2018 SNC-Lavalin scandal.
In “ The Enablers : How the West Supports Kleptocrats and Corruption — Endangering Our Democracy,” Vogl argues that western politicians must take greater responsibility. “For example, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau lost the shine on his public image when in 2018 he intervened in the prosecution by the Justice Department into alleged bribery by one of Canada’s largest engineering companies, SNC-Lavalin. Trudeau got off too lightly,” Vogl writes.
