Nortel Retirees and former employees Protection Canada (NRPC)
Okay, kiddo, let me try to explain this to you.
Do you know what a company is? Like McDonald's or Lego? Well, Nortel was also a company, but they made really important things like phones and the internet. But one day, they ran into some trouble and couldn't keep doing what they were doing anymore. You know how sometimes you can't go to the playground because it's raining? It's kind of like that.
Now, Nortel had a lot of people working for them, like your teacher at school or your mom and dad at their jobs. When Nortel couldn't keep going, these people were left without jobs or the benefits that came with them. So a group of these people got together to make sure that they were taken care of. It's like when you and your friends share your snacks at recess.
This group is called the Nortel Retirees and Former Employees Protection Canada, or NRPC for short. These people are fighting to make sure that Nortel's former employees get the benefits they were promised, like pensions and health care. It's like if your friend promised to share their toys with you, and then didn't do it. That wouldn't be fair, would it?
So the NRPC is like a big group of friends who are helping each other out. They want to make things right for the people who worked at Nortel. And they're doing this by talking to the government and other important people to make sure everyone knows how important it is to take care of these employees. It's like when you tell your mom or dad about something that's bothering you, and they try to fix it.
I hope that helps you understand what the NRPC is all about!
