I got the list of city-owned parking lots that Toronto is looking at for possible conversion to housing -- and many are in exactly the sort of area lots of people want to live https://t.co/NTWsQ2iefr

City council voted in March to look into converting 130 of its lots, comprising more than 10,000 parking spots, without knowing specific locations

My colleagues @tom_cardoso and @robyndoolittle spent many months showing how Canada’s access to information system is broken. Now a united group of opposition MPs want it fixed, but the governing Liberals are resisting

Proposed changes include bringing ministers’ offices under federal access law, setting a 60-day time limit on access requests and require automatic release of historical documents after 25 years

As promised: Five years after our Unfounded series, we've circled back. When the investigation ran, police services across the country made a lot of promises. We've circled back to see what's actually been happening:
