I&#x27;m hoping they speak out about being muzzled.<p>Edit: <i>&quot;It’s the first time in nearly a decade I’ve been able to speak with a Canadian government scientist directly, on the telephone, without spending days or weeks clearing the request through a media officer and submitting a list of questions for editing and approval.&quot;</i><p>I realize the ramifications were probably bad, but I&#x27;m surprised at least one or two didn&#x27;t ignore or actively disobey their government overlords... Or did they and I just didn&#x27;t hear about it?
