Book excerpt: This report details the British Columbia Attorney General's views regarding the Information & Privacy Commissioner's review of the implications of the United States Patriot Act for the personal information of British Columbians. The report focusses on the following issues identified by the Commissioner: whether the Act permits US authorities to access British Columbians' personal information that is, through the outsourcing of public services, in the custody or control of US-linked private-sector service providers; the conditions under which such access could occur; implications for public body compliance with the personal privacy protection provisions of the Freedom of Information & Protection of Privacy Act; and measures to eliminate or mitigate privacy risks affecting compliance with the latter Act. Matters discussed in the report include: existing information-sharing & access mechanisms between the US & Canada, including the Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty; the provincial legal framework related to protection of privacy & freedom of information; the risk of access to Canadian information under the Patriot Act; trade & investment obligations arising under international agreements; other security risks related to information disclosure; and privacy protection measures. Appendices include examples of effective mitigation strategies and a copy of the Commissioner's guidelines for data services contracts.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Congress enacted the USA PATRIOT Act soon after the 9/11 terrorist attacks. The most controversial sections of the Act facilitate the federal government's collection of more information, from a greater number of sources, than had previously been authorized in criminal or foreign intelligence investigations. The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA), and the national security letter (NSL) statutes were all bolstered. With the changes came greater access to records showing an individual's spending and communication patterns as well as increased authority to intercept e-mail and telephone conversations and to search homes and businesses. In some cases, evidentiary standards required to obtain court approval for the collection of information were lowered. Other approaches included expanding the scope of information subject to search, adding flexibility to the methods by which information could be collected, and broadening the purposes for which information may be sought. Some perceived the changes as necessary to unearth terrorist cells and update investigative authorities to respond to the new technologies and characteristics of ever-shifting threats. Others argued that authorities granted by the USA PATRIOT Act and subsequent measures could unnecessarily undermine constitutional rights over time. In response to such concerns, sunset provisions were established for many of the changes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States Patriot Act has the potential to affect British Columbians through its provisions that allow surveillance or access to information of any American organization, some of which may hold or have access to personal information on Canadians. This publication provides answers to questions on the impact of the Act on British Columbians and what the provincial government is doing to ensure that personal privacy is protected in the face of the Patriot Act. It explains the functions of the new Freedom of Information & Protection of Privacy Amendment Act in this regard and indicates additional privacy protection measures that public bodies can apply to limit the application of extraterritorial provisions in foreign legislation, restrict the ability of a US organization to compel disclosure, & related issues.
