Minister of Emergency Preparedness Bill Blair and RCMP Commissioner Brenda Lucki will testify at the House of Commons public safety and national security committee on allegations Blair pressured Lucki to release details on the guns used in the 2020 Nova Scotia mass shooting.
Blair and Lucki appeared before the committee this summer, where they both denied meddling in the RCMP’s investigation. They were responding to reports the Prime Minister’s Office and Blair’s office wanted information about the weapons used released publicly to advance the Liberal government’s gun control agenda.
Earlier this month, RCMP released audio of an April 2020 call between Lucki and RCMP staff.
