A cc/bcc email mixup & 100+ years of Canadian democracy is at risk. Well, maybe it's not quite that stark. But - trust is essential, for democracy and for business. See my comments in an interview with the CBC. #Dentons #Privacy #DentonsData #Toronto

After 20 years, Canada's privacy regime may finally be getting a makeover! My colleagues and I put together this helpful guide to the Consumer Privacy Protection Act. Download it here. You can thank me later. #Privacy #Technology #CPPA #Dentons #Data

Canada's proposed new #privacy law (#CPPA) would introduce new consent requirements, along with new exemptions from consent . The impact on business will be significant. See our latest CPPA: In Depth blog post on #DentonsData.

Canada's proposed new #privacy law #CPPA would require orgs to "dispose" of personal info & de-identified info. Unlike #PIPEDA, anonymization is not an option. Read about what this means for business as part of our "In Depth" series exploring the CPPA.

Canada's proposed new #privacy law (CPPA) introduces data mobility - individuals could request their info be shared between organizations. What does this mean for businesses?. Check out the latest #Dentons #Data blog post in our CPPA: In Depth series.

2nd reading of Bill C-11 (aka #CPPA) .Summary: .Lib - This will protect #privacy & promote biz!.Cons - Nuh-uh. Will hurt small/medium biz. NDP - Nuh-uh. It doesn’t take a human rights approach & this Tribunal stuff looks iffy. Bloc: How will this co-exist w/ Quebec’s Bill-64?.

Our early analysis of Bill C-11/the proposed Consumer #Privacy Protection Act. Crushing disappointment: no anonymization carveout, squishy "valid consent" provisions .Enthusiastic cheering: alternatives to consent; creation of a Tribunal #CPPA

Furiously blogging, writing, etc. about Canada's new privacy bill. Have mixed up #CCPA (the California privacy law) and #CPPA (the Canadian #privacy law) a dozen times already. It will be easier for everyone if we just tell California to rename their law.
