I'll get Chris to help me out again, but I think the particular case you're raising is moving into the Criminal Code, as opposed to being within the purview of PIPEDA.

Having said that, under PIPEDA currently, a bank cannot contact anyone. The amendments we're providing for will allow them to do this within the specific context of financial abuse relating to the banking transactions.
