It wasn't about jobs because there was little chance of job loss, SNC had a ton of back fill work.

Your first point can point to corruption, providing Trudeau was in on the illegal donation or if any donation was tied to his efforts to reduce their penalty. The others don't - they go more with my argument.
Again, I'm not saying it wasn't wrong. I'm saying it doesn't point to self-enrichment. Perhaps my definition of corruption is overly narrow. Certainly political gain is at issue here. But that is a huge continuum - lots of industries, or even individuals "invest" via donations to parties who they expect will do things that benefit them. That all should change IMO.
