Five things Canadians learned from former attorney general Jody Wilson-Raybould, in her testimony Wednesday at the House of Commons justice committee.

1. Wilson-Raybould said there were at least 10 phone calls and 10 different meetings, as well as several text messages, about the SNC-Lavalin case, between her or senior members of her staff and 11 people in the Prime Minister's Office and other departments, between Sept. 4, 2018 and Dec. 18, 2018. One of those meetings was between her and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Wilson-Raybould said it wouldn't be appropriate to discuss what research she undertook, or why she made the decision she made, citing concerns about affecting ongoing court cases in the matter. "I was entirely comfortable that I had the appropriate context in which to make my decision," she said.

I would like to see Puglass Jody Wilson-Raybould in charge of a committee to see how to separate the role of Attorney General & Justice Minister. To find a solution, take the lead in the change that needs to take place. We need JWR to be part of the solution. APTNInFocus

I learned Schrear needs to resign

I learned she’s a clout chaser

Canadians learned only 1 thing that Justin Trudeau is the worst thing to have happened to Canada. Period.

Raybould made her own decisions not Trudeau. That's what I learned.
