Yes, we requested to have counsel present at our interview, and Mr. Frizzell got quite threatening with me on the phone. He told me very specifically that I would be charged with obstruction of justice if I were to bring in legal counsel. He told me I had no right as a Canadian citizen to bring in legal counsel and he had a lot of intimidating statements to make about that.
I replied to him at the time that it was my understanding that just the previous week IBM had been interviewed, several of the staff from IBM, and they had their legal counsel present at that time, so why wouldn't I be able to have legal counsel present? He told me that he had come very close to charging them with obstruction of justice and he would not permit it.
