I agreed to be a witness and resource person for the petitioners and answer in writing questions to be asked of me. On 06 July 2018, one of the legal representatives of the petitioners, Attorney Hasminah Paudac, spoke with me via Skype and explained to me the process of Statement-taking. Attorney Kristin Casper, Greenpeace Canada’s litigation counsel and international legal coordinator, was also in that call. On 10 July 2018, Ms. Anna Dominique Esmeralda, legal liaison for the petitioners, sent the questions that I answer below. I submit this Profile and Statement, along with my Curriculum Vitae and PowerPoint Presentation, to the Commission on Human Rights. I commit to elaborate and clarify this Statement during the scheduled public hearings. 1 Marked as Exhibit “D-3” during the pre-marking of exhibits Marked as Exhibit “D-2” during the pre-marking of exhibits 3 Marked as Exhibit “D-1” during the pre-marking of exhibits 4 Marked as Exhibit “H” during the pre-marking of exhibits 2
