The Calgary Herald rants about transparency and a lack of accountability at the Attawapiskat reserve.
Canadian taxpayers want fairness and justness when it comes to how public money is being spent.....The treaties were signed by all parties involved, and that includes the federal government, which has every right to demand accountability for public money as its part of the bargain. Without transparency and openness on Attawapiskat's part, it will be impossible to create trust or foster sympathy for Spence's cause .Rick Mercer rants about the secrecy the federal government exhibits.

Think new fighter jets .....the Afghan detainee scandal - robo calls - the parliamentary budget officer - omnibus bills.....Wouldn't it be lovely if the federal government too demonstrated accountability and operated with transparency?
Wouldn't it be lovely if the media mentioned those lacks in the same breath they chastise First Nations and the Idle No More movement? Failing to do so wouldn't have anything with racism and a reluctance to give up privilege , would it?
