Good morning, Ms. Fraser.
I am the member for Beauharnois—Salaberry. Dundee is part of my riding and the people who live there are very proud of you. So I would therefore like to welcome you to the committee.
The Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission, the regulatory body responsible for insuring nuclear safety for all Quebeckers and all Canadians, has been the victim of political interference in our opinion. Ms. Keen has said that AECL was not complying with the conditions of its licence. Consequently, there was a dispute. Could you tell us who has the legal authority to make a decision in this type of dispute?
It appears to us that the behaviour of the president, who did her job in accordance with the act, displeased the minister and the government, and that she was therefore fired. Where does the truth lie in such a situation, and on whom can Canadians and Quebeckers rely when it comes to nuclear safety?
