New law protects provincial ‘whistleblowers’

source: CBC | May 09, 06 | submitted by Ryan

The public interest disclosure act would protect whistleblowers in all departments, as well as Crown corporations, regional health authorities, child and family services agencies, and independent offices of the legislative assembly.
