FEW CHANGES TO ACCESS TO INFORMATION BILL

The bill is fatally flawed and will make Canadian democracy weaker, said committee member Nathan Cullen, a New Democrat MP.
"The Liberals chose to ignore just about every piece of testimony that we were given. It just mocks the whole process and their commitment to evidence-based decision-making," Cullen said after the meeting.
"The results of this for Canadians who are trying to hold government accountable will be felt for years, that's the tragedy of what just happened."
The Conservatives considered the bill "beyond redemption" and therefore did not suggest amendments.
