MISSING INFORMATION COMPLAINT: HIGH RIVER FORCED ENTRIES
Request for Review to Alberta Information Commissioner dated July 14, 2019 by Dennis R. Young
EXCERPT: The Government Services Sector failed to conduct an adequate search and consequently, failed to provide all the records I requested from the Office of the Premier and Executive Council. The public’s right to know and the need to rebuild trust in the RCMP is more important than withholding documents from the public and the media. Openness and transparency is required in our examination of the many Charter violations in High River following the 2013 flood.
