Why Won’t The National Citizens Inquiry Put Their Financials On Their Website And The Names Of The People Who Are On Their Board Of Directors ?
I have inquired about this some time ago and never ever received a satisfactory answer. I ignored it for a while but I just looked again. And nothing has changed .
In objective number 3 on the Inquiry’s website the following is stated :
3. TO RECOMMEND ways and means of ensuring that any future national crises are better managed, harms mitigated, and trust in public institutions upheld.
‘Trust in public institutions upheld .’
What better way to uphold trust in public institutions than to disclose who manages it and who provides the money to it and how the money is spent.
Sounds like a no brainer to me.
But for some reason this is a problem for the Inquiry .
Many Canadians and likely some non Canadians contributed financially to the Inquiry given they are seeking donations. And I am sure they would like to know who operates it and how the finances are managed. Are there people hired as contractors ? For how much? For how long?
On researching the Government of Canada website I was able to find the Directors for this organization :
Directors;

According to this Government site this particular NC Inquiry was incorporated on January 17, 2024.
There is no financial information on the Inquiry before January 2024. How much money was raised ? How was it spent? Some of the present directors were a part of the group that managed the Inquiry before January , 2024.
The Inquiry since January, 2024 has produced no financials and though the legal requirement is annual financials you would think in the interests of transparency , accountability and ‘ trust in public institutions’ such would be provided. Even an unaudited summary of how much has been raised since January and how it has been spent I am sure would be appreciated .
Credibility is a must in this freedom movement. That means transparency and accountability.
