Tax Talk 35: Opening Up Government, w. Guest Sean Holman

Tax Talk host and CTF BC Director Jordan Bateman sits down with Sean Holman, an award-winning reporter, documentary filmmaker, an original muckraking blogger and now assistant professor of journalism at Mount RoyalUniversity, to talk about Sean’s new Unknowable Country column series. The two also dig into the negative ramifications of concentrating power in a Prime Minister’s or Premier’s Office, and how to get more out of backbench MPs and MLAs than simply “trained seal” behavior. Plus the usual features – the Comment of the Cast and the Waste of the Week (where your tax dollars are going to make sure invisible, non-existent trains run on time).
