It's interesting that Mr. Rubin mentioned information for parliamentarians. I know for a fact that I asked a couple of years back for some information and I got it through Access to Information. The particular minister I was dealing with asked for it through an order paper, and on the same question he had different information.
I couldn't believe it. How do you control that? The bureaucrat, in the way the bureaucracy is structured, controls the flow of information. If they don't like you as a minister, as a politician, they're going to make it very difficult for you, because they have tremendous power from the top down.
“Things have to change” is the only way to say it.
