Bill 22 opens the Freedom of Information and Privacy Protection Act for substantive changes for the first time in over a decade.

The Bill reduces your access to government information. Civil society is speaking against Bill. The independent Commissioner is critical of the Bill. Our law used to be one of the best in Canada. Bill 22 will erode government transparency and push us to a mediocre status at best. It is a Flip Flop for the party in power given where they stood in 2017. Yet this majority government continues to try and ram it through.

Please take action and lend your voice to help this government make improvements that benefit everyone.
