  • The Accurate News and Information Act (complete title: An Act to Ensure the Publication of Accurate News and Information) was a statute passed by the Legislative Assembly of Alberta, Canada, in 1937, at the instigation of William Aberhart's Social Credit government. It would have required newspapers to print "clarifications" of stories that a committee of Social Credit legislators deemed inaccurate, and to reveal their sources on demand. The act was a result of the stormy relationship between Aberhart and the press, dating to before the 1935 election, in which the Social Credit League was elected to government. Virtually all of Alberta's newspapers—especially the Calgary Herald—were critical of Social Credit, as were a number of publications from elsewhere in Canada. Even the American media had greeted Aberhart's election with derision. Though the act won easy passage through the Social Credit-dominated legislature, Lieutenant-Governor of Alberta John C. Bowen reserved royal assent until the Supreme Court of Canada evaluated the act's legality. In 1938's Reference re Alberta Statutes, the court found that it was unconstitutional, and it never became law. (en)
  • 《准确新闻及资讯法》(英語:Accurate News and Information Act)是加拿大阿尔伯塔省议会在省長领导的政府指使下于1937年通过的一项法案。该法规定,如果社会信用党议员组成的委员会认为报纸上刊发的内容不实,那么报社必须加以“澄清”,并且还要在议员要求下披露自己信息的来源。 社会信用党在和加拿大新闻界间的关系从1935年阿尔伯塔省大选前就一直很恶劣,几乎所有阿尔伯塔省的报纸都对社会信用党持批评态度,特别是《》,同样持这一立场的还有加拿大的其他多家报纸,该党赢得这年选举后,甚至连美国的媒体都对阿伯哈特的当选进行嘲笑。 由于当时社会信用党在省议会中占据绝对优势,因此该法案非常顺利地就得到了通过。但阿尔伯塔省省督暂缓了御准,直至加拿大最高法院对法案的合宪性进行评估。1938年,法院裁定法案违宪,因此这项法案也就没有成为法律。 (zh)
