Privacy bill would set out rules for Canadians' personal data, use of AI
The bill, to be presented by Innovation Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne, aims to fulfil his mandate to advance the federal digital charter, strengthen privacy protections for consumers and provide clear rules for fair competition in the online marketplace.
That bill would have required companies to obtain consent from customers through plain language, not a long legal document, before using their personal data. It did not, however, heed long-standing calls from privacy and accountability advocates to have the federal law governing personal information explicitly apply to political parties.
