		<description><![CDATA[I’ve been trying to find a topic to write about these past two weeks, but haven’t found something that really inspired me into outrage. I&#8217;ve just become too jaded. There have been stories of incompetence and abuse of authority – the rising aviation accident death rate due to Transport Canada’s refusal to act as a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last week I had the honour to accompany Hugh Danford, a whistleblower of great courage, to the Office of the Public Sector Integrity Commissioner. Hugh is a former pilot with many, many years in the cockpit and who served as an aviation safety inspector at Transport Canada from 1996 to about 2004. Following a 1999 [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The papers have been filled with accountability stories. Or rather, the lack of it in the face of obvious corruption or mismanagement.
