You know, you're not doing a good job of that, because the workers whom you say you're representing right now.... The only reason they're not getting more projects or movement right now is that there was a corrupt environment while everybody stood by and watched. Nobody in this process has offered any solutions of importance related to this matter, publicly or elsewhere. I've checked for that. If you want the workers you represent.... Maybe your organizations can show some support for the workers who actually came forward.
To Mr. Bains, it's good to see you. It's been a long time.
I want to go to this issue with you. Can you explain whether, during the process, you received any directive with regard to workers' rights, or with selecting board members that have experience dealing with issues like ethics and so forth? There seems to be a series of issues here. Was there any direction given to that process? Obviously, we cannot undo a lot of the things that have taken place now. However, do you have any recommendations or remorse with regard to the board selection that led to the abuse of employees?
Lastly, these employees, at least, will now be part of a group at NRC. However, they didn't have that protection. Do you have any recommendations about things you would have done differently to protect workers who are susceptible under political appointments?
