Brokering Access
Access to information (ATI) is widely regarded as a fundamental democratic right. Yet in Canada there still exists a struggle between the public’s quest for accountability and our government’s culture of secrecy. Drawing together the perspectives of social scientists, journalists, and ATI advocates, Brokering Access explores the policies and practices surrounding access to information at the federal, provincial, and municipal levels. This groundbreaking volume is the first of its kind to promote the idea that ATI should be used as a critical research strategy.

The first paper presents the constitutional argument for bureaucratic independence and its implication for public service accountability. Paper two recommends adoption of both a Charter of Public Service values and disclosure legislation as integral parts of the federal government's accountability regime, and examines the Charter & disclosure ideas within a comparativ...
