Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thanks to the witnesses for joining us today for one of our meetings.

I want to pick up on some of the discussion on whistle-blowing that's been under way here. We have a criminal law offence for employers who take action against employees for disclosing information to law enforcement. For all the witnesses, but particularly Mr. Bron and Mr. Cutler, do you think there should also be an offence for employers who take action against employees who make disclosures to third parties, like the media?
