Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act

I always remember that when he was appointed AG and everyone said, what? He's not a lawyer.

But he's the guy who brought in the Freedom of Information Act.

Groundbreaking legislation.

Always a member of the Press Gallery annual hockey pool.

There's not 2,200 finished units in buildings that are appropriate for them to buy into.

yes they will buy a lot or most below cost that's real estate yeah and you know it ebbs and flows the the concept that they're going to set up a whole department again because they love employing people that's how you get voted in you employ more people that need jobs that are afraid of not voting for you so and i think that's more the agenda than the reality of housing people and uh you're going to run around incognito somehow mystery by these things without anyone known as government i don't think so then you're going to have some silly rent to own program that just never worked anywhere on the planet and uh now I guess as government can always do what they do, they could probably amend the Freedom of Information Act again, much like they did on most Indigenous matters.

And on this matter, they could hide the facts here and tell us how great it was and how profitable it is, which we'll never know.

And it won't be.

I think it speaks to the underlying trust that voters need in their elected officials.

And when somebody puts forth a statement that does not accurately portray facts of what happened, and it took a Freedom of Information Act request in order to find out the facts of this case, then present it back to the current councillor, mayoral candidate in Linda Annis, and say... here's the FOI, here's what you said, now what would you like to say? And she changed her story.

And then it went on one layer further that her two dogs, her Dalmatians, were unlicensed.

So the mayoral candidate, who is a city councillor, is not following the bylaws.
