The AG and the institutional problem

My column this week on Loonie Politics draws from both the recent Auditor General's report on Library and Archives, along with my own pre-Press Gallery experience of doing records management at Health Canada, and shows that there is a larger cultural problem within the public service when it comes to document retention and the responsibility for ensuring that corporate memory is retained. It was nice to revisit this part of my career, and to bring a little bit of light to a chapter of the AG's report that got very little notice otherwise.
