RATTMAQ frequently files complaints with the federal government. The main issue raised in those complaints isn't the fact that inspections are being conducted virtually rather than in person on the farm but that we never get any feedback. We're told it's confidential. Consequently, it's hard to file complaints and continue doing so when we get no feedback, particularly since workers that we talked to on the ground haven't seen any change, even after complaints were filed. So there is a problem.
We're told it's for reasons of confidentiality, but, when we file complaints, we like to get some feedback on what happened. Did an investigator go to the farm? We don't know. We know nothing at all. We know that investigations are being conducted, but that's all.
I filed I don't know how many complaints against Mr. Lemay. In that case, investigations were conducted and he actually lost his permit. However, I file hundreds of complaints a year.
