In June, MP Salma Zahid announced she will be holding public consultations this summer to draft legislation she intends to introduce this fall to increase transparency and accountability for national security agencies in Canada.

The consultations include a public consultation in Kanata on October 3rd, 2022.

MP Zahid’s legislation aims enshrine lawyers’ obligation to exercise a “duty of candour” in their dealings with the courts, with measures to provide accountability. More information about the legislation can be found here.
