“Harper’s Conservatives have used three basic methods to undermine environmental stewardship in Canada: reduce the government’s capacity to gather data; downsize or eliminate offices that monitor and analyze scientific information; and seize control of channels of scientific information and prevent the publication or release of any information that could interfere with government policy.”
― Mel Hurtig (1932-2016) The Arrogant Autocrat: Stephen Harper's Takeover of Canada.
