By Anja Karadeglija Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre defended his comments about the RCMP Wednesday and denied saying former prime minister Justin Trudeau should be in jail. “That’s not what I said,” he said on Parliament Hill when asked about a recent interview on a YouTube channel. In that interview, which ran on the Northern Perspective channel last week, Poilievre called the RCMP’s leadership “despicable” and accused it of covering up for Trudeau. “Many of the scandals of the Trudeau era should have involved jail time,” he said. “Trudeau broke the Criminal Code when he took a free vacation from someone with whom he had government business.” “If the RCMP had been doing its job and not covering up for him, then he would have been criminally charged,” Poilievre added in
