TORONTO: Justin Trudeau says he has taken many lessons from a Cabinet controversy that has shaken Canada's government in an election year, but the prime minister isn't apologizing.
Trudeau said Thursday there was an "erosion of trust" and a "lack of communication" between his office and former Justice Minister Jody Wilson-Raybould, who says Trudeau and senior members of his government inappropriately tried to pressure her to avoid criminal prosecution of a Canadian company.
Trudeau and his aides deny that, saying they were only pointing out that prosecution could endanger thousands of people's jobs.
Trudeau says Wilson-Raybould did not come to him to express her concerns and says he wishes she had.
