As a Canadian who was living in Canada at the time the previous government enacted said policy, I don't find this story overblown at all, and am very happy to see the new government moving so quickly to remediate this problem. There was a lot of public outrage at the time, especially given that this "muzzling" was seen as another part of the Harper government's systematic undermining of climate science in Canada.
- MAGZine 11y agobasically this. I don't think yummyfajitas understands how against the data-driven decision the Harper Government is. It's like the equivalent if the gvnt (instead of oil companies) studying climate change, and then hiding the results. except that the government is SUPPOSED to be morally engaged beholden to the best interests of society at large.
