     1   Q.   Lied to them about what?
     2        A.  Well, most of the ones who I had spoken to said that
     3        she had promised them, that they would be guaranteed a wage
     4        increase, they would be guaranteed benefits, they would be
     5        guaranteed pensions, all that stuff they would be
     6        guaranteed it.  The only thing I said to them is that:
     7         "What I was told from Chris was that everything would be
     8        negotiated; it is not a guarantee that we would get
     9        anything".  They got very upset at that.
    10
    11   Q.   Sorry, Chris got upset about that?
    12        A.  Pardon me?
    13
    14   Q.   You said what you had been told by Chris to everybody about
    15        how those were all false?
    16        A.  Yes.
    17
    18   Q.   Then people turned against Sarah once you had told them
    19        that, yes?
    20        A.  A lot of them turned against Sarah before that, I do
    21        not know.
    22
    23   Q.   When they heard that they might lose benefits that made
    24        them feel ---
    25        A.  That and other things.
    26
    27   Q.   -- indisposed towards Sarah, yes?
    28        A.  That and other things, yes.
    29
    30   Q.   A question about Bonnie McLellan:  Was she getting dental
    31        benefits from the store?
    32        A.  As far as I know, she has a medical plan.  I am not
    33        sure.
    34
    35   Q.   Paid for by the Company?
    36        A.  I do not know how the plan works but, as far as I know,
    37        she has a plan.  I do not know how it works or who pays for
    38        what.
    39
    40   Q.   But does she have some benefits though from the store that
    41        other people do not have, or did she at that time?
    42        A.  She is the only one that I ever know who did a medical
    43        plan.  That is the only one that I would know of that she
    44        has other than anybody else.
    45
    46   Q.   OK.  In your paragraph (12) you said something about:  "On
    47        4th October I was working on the shift that day and after
    48        Sabina and Bonnie returned to the office", which office is
    49        that?
    50        A.  That would have been the store.  I had spoken to Cam in 
    51        his office. 
    52 
    53   Q.   Right.  So, Sabina and Bonnie had a kind of meeting in the
    54        office, did they?
    55        A.  With Cam.
    56
    57   Q.   Why did they return to the office?  Had they been there the
    58        previous day or something?
    59        A.  No, they left that morning to go down to the Labour
