On boogers in the body politic. The Alberta Wildrose Party Sure can pick 'em!

Sebastien Togneri, the high level Tory operative accused of blocking freedom of information requests |
"Togneri set off a political firestorm when it was revealed by The
Canadian Press that he, as a senior aide to then Public Works Minister
Christian Paradis, had ordered the "unrelease" of a sensitive document
that the department was set to provide to the news agency after a
request under the Access to Information Act. As a result, he was the subject of a year-long probe by Canada's
information commissioner in 2011 in which he was found to have meddled
in a number of access-to-information files in 2010. The investigation
concluded that Togneri had interfered with the release of a record, even
though he had no legal authority to do so."
