I wonder, because in other countries in the world, elected representatives were able to see the contracts signed with the same companies. Why are there clauses in Canada that prevent elected representatives from seeing the contracts and that prevent the public from knowing how much it cost?
Everyone is happy to be protected. In this respect, we did a great job for sure. However, people like to know how much of their tax money was used. In Canada, we can't know, but elsewhere they can.
Why is there this sort of nebulousness around something that we paid for out of our own pockets? If we want to raise people's awareness so that they pay even more attention to their health, there is no better way than to tell them how much it cost.
