Memo on environmental group funding censored

18:24 Aug 6 2014 Ottawa, Ontario, Canada

Description
The Canadian government has censored parts of Environment Canada documents related to a decision to cut funding to the Canadian Environmental Network. This discovery was made as a result of an access to information request, in which large parts of the requested memo regarding the network's funding had been blocked out. A follow-up complaint resulted in several passages being uncensored, revealing that Environment Canada had developed a list of reasons to continue funding the Network, before the decision was made to cut it.
