The criminal brief released by the RCMP made it clear that, if this were a civil servant or any other Canadian, they would be facing serious criminal charges in this case. There are new known facts that warrant a full investigation.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7113668\" data-originallang=\"en\">Does the <a data-HoCid=\"245292\" href=\"/politicians/david-lametti/\" title=\"David Lametti\">Attorney General</a> believe that the law should be applied equally to all Canadians, including a sitting prime minister, if they commit a criminal offence?</p>",
