WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?
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?
This one day seminar will have practical sessions on implementation
procedures of both the federal Privacy Act and the private sector legislation.
