Subhead:The taxpayer-funded broadcaster claims it does not centrally track traffic violations involving its fleet and says compiling the data would take too much effort.#
Two of Canada’s largest Crown corporations — Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC/Radio-Canada) and Canada Post — flatly refused to disclose basic information about traffic tickets involving their vehicles, according to a new Order Paper response, even as a wide range of other federal departments cooperated.
The stonewalling appears in the government’s response to Order Paper Question Q-500, which asked how many federal vehicles received traffic tickets, which departments were involved, the nature of the infractions, the dollar value of fines, and whether taxpayers or staff paid.
