        This short documentary uses an infamous Canadian incident --
        the <a

          target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">'Triple Delete' scandal</a> --
        to illustrate how many governments around the world are moving
        to a form of "oral government" -- failing to keep essential
        records of their decisions, and even illegally destroying
        records to avoid accountability. This subverts freedom of
        information laws and suppresses democratic participation.<br>
        <br>
        In 2015 the government of British Columbia was caught improperly
        deleting email records concerning missing and murdered
        indigenous women along the "Highway of Tears". The scandal
        opened a window on an entire toolkit of bad records practices
        that go on today within governments across Canada and around the
        world.<br>
