I'm sorry, but if you were covered by the Access to Information Act, if you were listed in schedule I, which you would be by Bill C-2, and you didn't have these new exclusions, then the act as it stands would apply to you, and it already protects commercially sensitive corporate trade secrets, all of those things. They're already contemplated in the ATI at the discretion of the Information Officer.
What they're giving you in Bill C-2 takes that away. It makes it automatic and it makes it forever--permanent. We have a right to know what Canada Post is up to, just like we have a right to know what any crown corporation is up to.
Why this rigid exclusion? Did you ask for it, for instance? Were you consulted, and did you ask for this exclusion?
