Should the Canadians publish the TSBC report in Canada?

Sarcs, if Truss won't release the TSBC report, perhaps this deceitful act can be leveraged off? You see, it cost the Canucks money to prepare and carry out their audit of the ATSBeaker. They then had to expend resources writing the final report, and the airfares, accommodation, travel allowances, mini bar bills and stuffed miniature kangaroos will have cost the Canucks a specific sum of their own taxpayer monies would it not? And even if the ATSBeaker footed the bill, the Canucks still had to send their people down under for a set period of time, disadvantaging their own department. So with that in mind, wouldn't the Canadian taxpayer want to see some evidential results of the trip down under, such as an audit report? Don't they want to see exactly what it was that their tax money was being used for? Regardless of what our Minister of coverups is doing here, why don't the Canucks release the audit report on their own website? Makes me wonder whether unlike in Australia, the Canadians have some sympathetic or even interested media outlets or industry people who would be interested in seeing the report and results of what their people did when down under? Surely the Canadians, who have learned a lot of lessons and have lead the field in aviation safety have their own international IOS affiliates?

Now wouldn't that be embarrassing if the Canucks apparent gesture of good will turned into an international bonfire? Oh dear, we know how much Governments hate bad press and hate bad relationships between normally friendly nations.
What do you think Minister, should the Australian chapter of the IOS take their concerns about your tactics of burying important and critical reports to a new level and commence a campaign for transparency upon our Canadian neighbours?
