I think having an independent Office of the Auditor General is a cornerstone to a good democratic system. You know that you can rely on the information I provide as being free of influence and being based on fact. That also requires us to have clear access to information so that we can provide factually based information to support Parliament in holding the government to account.
As soon as you impede that, potentially, it either reduces the importance of our organization or impedes our ability to continue to provide fact-based information to Parliament.
