Journalist Gloria Dickie requested field access to Parks Canada scientists while working on a feature article about grizzly bears, and was surprised to have her request turned down. When she asked other journalists, they reported similar challenges in accessing information from Parks Canada employees. Gloria Dickie’s article, Parks in the Dark, appeared in The Narwhal in September.
