DID YOU KNOW THAT . . .
Among other offences, the FOIPP Act says it is an offence to wilfully collect, use, or disclose personal information in violation of Part II, or wilfully obstruct the Commissioner in the performance of her duties. Anyone who is guilty of an offence may be fined up to $10,000.00. The Commissioner is not the one who decides if someone is guilty of an offence, or decides whether to order a fine. If the Commissioner has evidence of an offence, she may disclose it to the Crown Attorney’s Office. The Crown Attorney’s Office decides whether or not to lay a charge.
