Privacy
has now become a major issue in Canada in both the public and private sectors.
Three provincial Privacy Commissioners in Canada will address the status
and importance of privacy to organizations.
The relevance of privacy in Canadian life has been spurred on by the
Protection of Personal Information and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), which
covers the private sector in Canada. This law came into effect on January 1,
2001 and will be applicable to all jurisdictions in Canada as of January 1,
2004, either through laws passed in the provinces or under the federal
legislation. New technologies
are emerging as enhancers of privacy and playing a significant role in how
Canadians protect their privacy. How does this relate to current privacy law
requirements in Canada and how can technology protect Canadians’ privacy?
The
evolution of e-government programs in government has accentuated the importance
of privacy even further. The
Treasury Board of Canada recently announced that Privacy Impact Assessments must
be conducted for all e-government program implementations.
How will privacy play into all these developments?
