Canada

Unsurprising behaviour from the political party that just can't help but accuse everyone else of pushing a hidden agenda, all while refusing to be open and accountable, picking dumb fights countrywide, and funding a secret "War Room" whose biggest success so far has been promoting an animated Netflix movie by accident.

UCP are clowns. UCP voters are either actively hateful or just dumb as fuck.

FOIA request: where's my super suit?

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Two years ago, when The Globe and Mail set out to investigate the state of freedom of information across the country, part of the effort centred on using access requests to create a tally of how the various systems functioned.

The province’s 22 ministries refused to answer The Globe’s request for basic data of how freedom of information is working in Alberta.

This week The Globe reported that Alberta’s Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner has launched a systemic investigation into whether the province has not complied with its own law.

Governments of all partisan stripes, favouring secrecy over openness, can too easily undermine requests with delays, forcing people who seek information into an extended battle.

Last December, a federal government review of the freedom to information produced zero recommended changes to access laws, after more than two years of work.

Months after the zero recommendations, The Globe showed the Liberals had rejected a better plan proposed by the Treasury Board to strike an independent panel to review the law.
