Webinar: Privacy Law Modernization for Municipalities

On Tuesday September 15 at 10:00 a.m. join us for the webinar Privacy Law Modernization for Municipalities. This webinar will focus on recent changes to privacy laws in Canada and what Saskatchewan's municipalities can do to ensure their privacy program is ready for any future amendments to The Local Authority Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (LAFOIP).

Many Canadian provinces have passed modernized public sector privacy laws over the past few years, including Alberta, B.C., Ontario and Nova Scotia, with new responsibilities placed on municipalities that align with citizens' heightened expectations of privacy. Additionally, the federal government has introduced an overhaul of its private sector privacy law, including significant new requirements for Saskatchewan-based businesses. With all of these changes, there are some important questions:

• What should Saskatchewan municipalities expect, if Saskatchewan introduces changes to LAFOIP?

• What are the common themes in updated privacy laws?

• What can municipalities do to prepare now?
