5/5 based on 1 votes.
This links to a 2013 report by The Professional Institute of the Public Service of Canada on the risks felt by Canadian scientists against speaking out about issues related to public health, safety, and the environment.

Intro: "A major survey of federal government scientists commissioned by the Professional Institute of the Public Service of Canada (PIPSC) has found that 90% feel they are not allowed to speak freely to the media about the work they do and that, faced with a departmental decision that could harm public health, safety or the environment, nearly as many (86%) would face censure or retaliation for doing so."
