    - yes - it's pretty much the definition of a chilling effect. -- nm - Reagen May 7, 10:45 6
      - I don't have a tremendous problem with that on the surface. Especially in political reporting, the use of unnamed sources has been abused to no end. - Name Withheld By Request May 7, 10:48 4
        
        I wonder if Adscam or Shawinigate would have been as big without unnamed sources. :) -- nm - Reagen May 7, 10:51 3
        
        Well, the latter is what prompted this particular case. An unnamed source turned over a letter tying in Chretien and RCMP determined it was a forgery - Name Withheld By Request May 7, 10:54 2
        
        Don't we have some sort of whistleblower legislation in Canada? -- nm - Beryllium May 7, 10:55 1

      - word. -- nm - Beryllium May 7, 10:45
  - Sounds like they are applying the same standard as lawyer-client confidentiality, yes? -- nm - Fuzzy (195.5 lbs, up 0.5 lb) May 7, 10:40 3
    - Didn't read the statement myself, but a few stories said in the age of blogs and Twitter, it's even tough to say who's a journo or not. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request May 7, 10:42 1
