Silence of the Bridges

Oh now there's a surprise: Officials at Transport Quebec are refusing to publicly disclose the province's bridge reports. Time for Premier Jean Charest and Transport Minister Julie Boulet to step in and do what is right in the interest of society. We helped pay for those bridges and we have every right to see what those reports reveal.

In some cases, the public does not need to know what is going on behind the dark, dismal halls of power politics. People feel they have the right to every piece of document no matter how classified or sensitive. There are indeed limits to what the public needs to know.

However, in this case it's a little different. Bridges are falling on our heads.
