Canadian woman faces 13-year wait for hog industry info

From CBC News:

A woman from the Rural Municipality of Daly in western Manitoba faces a long wait — 13½ years, to be exact — for government records she requested about the province's livestock industry.

Before the holidays, Ruth Pryzner asked the Manitoba government for records on all known hog operations in the province, filing a number of requests under the Freedom of Information and Personal Privacy Act (FIPPA). . .

. . . But the province told Pryzner it would take 13½ years to get the documents together, she said.
