Professor Vincent Kazmierski Featured in Podcast on Cabinet Secrecy
Associate Professor Vincent Kazmierski of Carleton University’s Department of Law and Legal Studies recently participated in a podcast discussion examining Cabinet secrecy, government transparency, and access to information in Canada.
The podcast, titled Is Cabinet Secrecy an Ever-Expanding Black Hole Hiding Information That Properly Should Be Public?, was produced by the Centre for Free Expression at Toronto Metropolitan University.
Professor Kazmierski joined Professor Yan Campagnolo of the University of Ottawa Faculty of Law and journalist Dean Beeby to discuss whether the complete exclusion of Cabinet secrets from Canada’s federal Access to Information Act is unconstitutional.
The conversation explores the scope of Cabinet secrecy protections in Canada and raises important questions about government accountability and the public’s right to access information.

The podcast is also available on YouTube and major podcast streaming platforms.
