Interim information commissioner calls for leadership from PM on opengov, opendata

Jennifer Bell
Suzanne Legault, the interim information commissioner, gave a strongly worded speech yesterday to the parliamentary committee on Access to Information, Privacy, and Ethics.  In it, she calls for leadership from the Prime Minister on open government, and lays out 5 principles for open government and open data.

The speech is linked on the IOC's office here:
