About: Canada’s whistleblower laws focus on the public sector and are hopelessly inadequate. Despite this, the private sector is different and has some good programs with protections for those who speak up, and some laws are beginning to incorporate best practices. 

Join a panel of private sector experts who will examine what is working, what the best practices are, and how we can continue to improve.

Co-Sponsored by Transparency International Canada and Whistleblowing International Network
