OTTAWA -- Crown-Indigenous Relations Minister Carolyn Bennett has admitted to, and apologized for, sending Independent MP and former Liberal justice minister Jody Wilson Raybould a text message that Wilson-Raybould called “racist” and “misogynist.”
On Thursday morning, Wilson-Raybould tweeted a screenshot of a text message that Bennett sent her, in which Bennett asked: “Pension?”
The comment seemed to suggest that Wilson-Raybould calling for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to stop “jockeying for an election” -- as the nation continues to grieve the growing number of unmarked graves being discovered at former residential school sites -- was prompted by her own desire to maintain her MP pension.
