Thank you and congratulations on the high calibre of your presentation. It was really very interesting.
Bill C-2, in its current form, enables so-called ordinary citizens who are neither government contract workers nor public servants to lodge a complaint through their member of Parliament. We would like to replace this provision with a complaint procedure similar to the one used by the Official Languages Commissioner. I find it difficult to imagine who, aside from a contract worker or a public servant, would file a complaint. However, your presentation enabled us to understand that you were part of a large and significant category of individuals who could lodge complaints of this type.
Are you satisfied with this part of the act, which would enable you to file a direct complaint with the Integrity Commissioner? I thought I understood that you would like to benefit from the same protection against retaliation that is afforded to the people covered by this act. Is that correct?
