Mr. Bron, in your assessment of Bill C-290, you made the observation that the improvements this bill make may “act as a Trojan Horse, luring unwitting whistleblowers with illusory protection.”
I think the last thing we want to do is have the appearance of doing something when, in fact, we're not. We want to address doing nothing, but we don't want to pretend or be fooled into thinking we're doing something when we're not.
You identified the five categories that are needed in order for whistle-blowing protections to be effective. How can we improve this bill right now so that it offers substantive protections to whistle-blowers?
