This would require all organizations covered by PIPEDA that make any disclosures to law enforcement, any government agency, or any investigative body, for that matter, to record all those exchanges and to notify individuals within 60 days and make a public report every quarter.
That's a significant administrative burden. This would cover every organization covered by the act, so every small business or what have you. Because of the broad nature of the proposed amendment, it would cover any interactions or any exchanges. Take something as simple as a police officer asking someone working in a doughnut shop about a customer who was recently in. The doughnut shop owner would require, under that circumstance, to record that type of information, keep a record of it, try to notify the individual whose information they gave out, and then every quarter report out on those kinds of exchanges.
