We never exaggerate coverage.
The municipal tracker says 26 of 257 on every page. The crime tracker maps only the stations with real coordinates. You always see the size of the sample.
We never invent certainty.
Where a Blue Drop score was never published, the page says so. Where a minister has no scorecard, we do not assign a grade. Missing stays missing.
Verified, calculated and AI-generated are labelled differently.
Official findings carry a source link. Calculator outputs show the table they came from. AI explanations are marked as explanations, not findings.
Where data has gaps, we say so openly.
Eight premiers have no accessible asset declaration. Rather than pad those profiles, we make the absence itself the story.
