A sweeping federal communication ban ordering agricultural scientists to lock out local mayors and evade reporters represents a chilling, anti-democratic assault on public transparency. By aggressively muzzling frontline public servants to conceal a massive $394-million laboratory budget cut, Ottawa has stripped Canadians of their fundamental right to know how their own food security is being compromised. This weaponization of government secrecy directly threatens democratic accountability, forcing open inquiry behind locked gates and hiding vital public-good science from the very communities that funded it.
