Resigning would be an abandonment of her duties?She said she did not think any of it crossed the line into illegality.
I'm not sure I agree, but I'm not a lawyer.
As for resigning, that would have been a surrender. She stayed to do her job as AG, which was to defend the independence of the judiciary. If she had left, the PM simply would have gotten his way by appointing a "yes" man to the post (such as the "Honourable" David Lametti), and you would have heard nothing about the subversion of Canadian constitutional principles under this gov't.
In this case, resigning would have been an abandonment of her duties.
Gun nut needs to give his head a shake.
