Prob because our government is becoming more and more opaque and won’t be honest with people / share information, actually. This government in particular has been the worst I can recall for that type of non-transparency. Harper’s gov was bad for it too. It’s a troubling trend.

So I don’t think it’s unreasonable for people to assume the worst again, based on this federal governments track record.
