Looking at the previous article about this that has more quotes: https://nationalpost.com/news/politics/liberal-government-blocking-over-1000-documents
I did find most of the quotes under the section "NSICOPโs access to relevant documents" of the actual National Security and Intelligence Committee of Parliamentarians Annual Report 2023
For anyone looking at which part National Post decided to omit:
Really the question would any of these other parties allowed unfettered access to all their document from National Security and Intelligence Committee of Parliamentarians which does include opposition MP's.
Wait, is this even a Liberal thing then? It sounds like they requested information from federal departments and those departments said "We have these documents but cannot share them due to Cabinet confidence." That doesn't sound like it involves a single elected entity, nevermind a Liberal one.
Ultimately it is the current government saying no.
The rest the parties could easily pass a bill where NSICOP has full access to everything and if any of the members of found be using the information for political advantage they would be significantly prosecuted, but as usual I think this is more about theatrics then making things better.
Ooooh!!! Nice job! Yeah that says to me that this might be due to the agencies and not the liberals.
