In the previous meeting, we heard from witnesses about the still unresolved Afghan detainees case. The government had prorogued Parliament before the public had a chance to learn the full truth of whether the government was knowingly transferring Afghan detainees, and we wouldn't have known that without specific whistle-blowers and the protection of those whistle-blowers.
Richard Colvin was the diplomat who brought the allegations forward, and we heard that, of course, senior military leadership and government elected officials were involved. They tried to discredit him. There's a lot that was done against that whistle-blower, and there weren't protections in place to ensure that he was protected at that time.
I want to know if you believe that there have been enough legislative changes to effectively protect whistle-blowers, because we certainly heard in this committee as well that, through the chain of command, if things are brought forward, there is often punishment for that.
Can you talk about that in terms of what you've seen and your experience as the commissioner?
