  Somewhat no, because coming from a small town I know that most of the money goes to the city ... so we’re told one thing, and then another thing happens.

  Every government tries to be open and honest with their constituents but there are times when there is information they can’t release ... the government doesn’t have the right to give out information on health care or legal matters or child and family services.

  In certain regards maybe they’re transparent but I don’t necessarily agree with everything they do.

  I’m happy with the NDP and always vote for them. I haven’t had a disappointment yet.

  Kirsten Godbout, manager food operations and catering Diversity Food Services

  No government is open and transparent. It’s the nature of government because they go in with an agenda and omit any information that would be detrimental to that agenda.

  Jason Robillard, manager UWSA Part-time and Mature Students’ Centre

  I believe the Doer government has been transparent in giving the media and the public enough information to make an informed judgment on the goings-on at the legislature.
