Blair, Lucki insist ‘request’ about Nova Scotia shooting info was not political pressure

The head of the RCMP and the former public safety minister continued to insist on Monday that there was no political interference in a police investigation into the Nova Scotia mass shooting of April 2020.

The House of Commons committee on public safety called back Emergency Preparedness Minister Bill Blair and RCMP Commissioner Brenda Lucki to drill down into the details of a tense conference call between Lucki and senior staff in Nova Scotia that was held in the days after the shooting.
