“The accident itself and then the Wells commission both point to the fact that there were signs of an obvious safety defect in the transmission of that helicopter and it’s never been adequately explained how our regulator, Transport Canada, missed that,” Fiorante said.

“What (the families) are calling on the minister to do is to investigate how the regulatory system failed. In other words, why the safeguards that are supposed to be in place to protect the flying public didn’t work in this case, and there’s never been an adequate explanation for that. It’s not something that the Transportation Safety Board went into.
The truth is out there.
