Controversy

In February 2019, Sidhu made what were considered inappropriate comments about Jody Wilson-Raybould during the SNC-Lavalin affair stating "The way she’s acting, I think she couldn’t handle the stress", she was not a "team player", that her discomfort was caused by “a lack of experience,” and "I think there’s somebody else behindmaybe her father — pulling the strings."
Sidhu made a formal apology in the House of Commons on February 28, 2019.
