In Reconciliation

Whenever Indigenous Peoples exercising jurisdiction over their lands and natural resources encounter roadblocks in accessing information from a provincial public body, access to information provides the legal means for them to address the lack of Transparency.

Bill 22 opens the Freedom of Information and Privacy Protection Act for substantive changes for the first time in over a decade. Unfortunately, if passed, this Bill will undermine access to information and make public bodies less transparent. It is a step backwards for openness and accountability, and a missed opportunity to improve the information rights of British Columbians.

Take action here.
