In Alberta, I suspect that the Klein government wants to bury some of its more odious activities. Bill 20 has just been railroaded through the legislature, placing all kinds of arbitrary limits on the access of the public to government records. In fact, some of the clauses in the amendments appear to give the government the right to shred documents older than 5 years if they so choose.
Given Ralph's attitude over the years, I'd put pretty good odds that there's a shredding party going on in Edmonton that makes Ollie North's infamous "shredding parties" look pretty tame.
Albertans should be outraged at this bill, and Canadians should take a close look at what Ralph is doing, because when Stephen Harper isn't taking his cues from George W. Bush in Washington, he looks to Edmonton for ideas. Neither being prize winning examples of "open, transparent government".

Gotta get that shredding out early before Lyle starts telling people where the bodies are buried.
Perhaps they've seen what happened in Saskatchewan when the Tories were ousted there.
