You're right. Low voter turnout can be connected to secrecy. Mayor Peter Kelly ranted and raved against secrecy when he was a councillor now City Council makes Howard Hughes look like an exhibitionist.
As well throughout the system secrecy is rampant. Look at the Commonwealth games. Also the tax payer paid for feasibility study that Fred MacGillivary had done with respect to the games. It took over a year to see it and with good reason as far as Mr. MacGillivary was concerned. His own study said that a football stadium, even with a CFL franchise would be a financial burden on the tax payer. They are spending public funds and working for the public. The public, as their employer, has a right to know what they are doing, who is doing it and where public funds are being spent. Every dime every day. As well all votes in council should be recorded and made public within 24 hours. We have a right to know who is backing which economic nightmare like the Bedford Halifax high speed ferry.
