Mr. Chair, I have a question.
Mr. Julian has used the term “get out of jail free card”. I appreciate what he's trying to achieve; it's always the spin you put on something. It's just that he's completely wrong. This is not about getting out of jail free.
I want to ask our officers here to comment on whether there's anything preventing the authorities from pressing criminal charges. Is there anything that would prevent a member of the public or an organization of the public from commencing an action for negligence in the civil courts? Is there anything preventing an employee from going outside of the voluntary reporting process and going to the press by way of whistle-blowing or going to Transport Canada to say that the company is doing something wrong and it's a serious problem?
Is there anything that prevents them from doing that?
