How to Make an Access Request, Inquiry or Complaint

Under Canada’s Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act, individuals have the right to request access to their personal information and to have it amended if it is incomplete, out of date, or inaccurate. Individuals can also challenge the uses of personal information or an organization’s compliance with any other aspect of the law.  They can withdraw their consent to continuing use of their personal information for purposes that are not legally required or part of an existing contractual commitment.

  

The following procedures are intended to help individuals make a written access request or file a complaint under the Act.

Please note that you must produce at least two pieces of identification bearing a signature, one of which should include photo identification and a birth date in order to obtain the information requested.
