I think that this is worth for Smith than it was Trudeau due for the nature of Smiths support and that these cases are still pending being prosecuted.
Her base will want her to double down that she was right to contact prosecutors and will be angry if these cases proceed so the knives could come from the right. In order to win an election she needs to offer some sort of explanation and back off the interference.
In Trudeau’s case maintaining cabinet confidence and electoral results pointed in the same direction. Here Smith is caught in the same pincer Kenny was on Covid.
