As International Right to Know Day on Sept. 28 approaches, it is worth
reflecting on the state of access to information across Canada. The Centre
for Law and Democracy, a Halifax-based human rights non-governmental
organization, has developed the RTI Rating, a methodology for measuring the
strength of access to information laws. We have applied the RTI Rating
around the world to support transparency efforts and it is recognized
globally and used by, among others, the World Bank and UNESCO.

umbrella of federal regulations."
Senator Ted Kennedy, in defending trucking deregulation in 1978.
