The Maple Leaks Origins Story

Welcome to Maple Leaks—a digital safehouse for exposing systemic abuse, obfuscation, and institutional gaslighting in Canada’s federal transparency regime.

This platform was born in May 2025 after Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED) submitted a spurious application under Section 6.1(1) of the Access to Information Act to the Office of the Information Commissioner (OIC). Their goal? To suppress 126 access to information requests—many of which documented misconduct, narrative manipulation, and internal surveillance patterns emerging from within ISED itself.

Rather than addressing the disturbing substance of those requests, ISED chose the bureaucratic route of character assassination: branding legitimate investigative inquiries as “vexatious.” This move was not just procedurally defective—it was strategically timed and chillingly political.

We don’t fold under pressure. We publish.

Maple Leaks exists because of this censorship attempt. What was meant to be buried will now be spotlighted. What was dismissed as paranoia will be catalogued as precedent.

Here, you’ll find:

  • Disclosed documents and metadata from our ATIP files
  • Strategic commentary on Canada’s FOI landscape
  • Technical OSINT tracing federal actors’ narrative control
  • Legal analysis of Section 6.1(1) weaponization

If you’ve ever been told your request was “too broad,” your concern “not in the public interest,” or your research “abusive,” this site is for you.

We’ll publish until the record is clear.

Maple Leaks is powered by Prime Rogue Inc under the editorial direction of Kevin J.S. Duska Jr. & Margot Lanihin
