I said as much during my presentation. I'm not aware of the legislation you are referring to that is in effect in the United States, which is not always model of society we would wish to emulate. This is not what we want to import into Canada, and especially not into Quebec.
I do, however, wish to state that we want effective protection for public servants who are witnesses to wrongdoing, in order that they have an appropriate place to report this to. However, we do not want a reward system. This is true for ourselves, for public servants, regardless. We do not want to set up a whistleblowing system or an excessively judicialized one, nor do we want processes that are overly political. I think that the existing whistleblower protection is fine. However, we do not agree with the proposed $1,000 payment. That risks creating a culture of paranoia within our organization, and I do not think that is a model we would wish to bring this into Canada.
