Canada’s proposed new privacy law: Bill C-36, the Protecting Privacy and Consumer Data Act
Canada's federal private-sector privacy law may be about to undergo its biggest transformation in more than 25 years.Bill C-36 would repeal the privacy provisions of PIPEDA and replace them with the new Protecting Privacy and Consumer Data Act (PPCDA). The bill introduces mandatory privacy management programs, enhanced consent requirements, new rights to dispose of personal information, privacy impact assessments for cross-border data transfers, significant administrative monetary penalties, and an entirely new enforcement model that replaces the current role of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.This episode explains the key provisions of Bill C-36, compares it with the earlier Bills C-11 and C-27, and discusses what these proposed changes could mean for Canadian businesses, privacy professionals, and individuals.Follow the progress of the Bill here: https://www.parl.ca/LegisInfo/en/bill/45-1/C-36Read Professor Michael Geist's commentary here: https://www.michaelgeist.ca/2026/06/canadas-digital-super-regulator-bill-c-36-pushes-out-the-privacy-commissioner-and-hands-private-sector-privacy-to-an-overloaded-commission/Read Professor Teresa Scassa's commentary here: https://teresascassa.substack.com/p/canadas-new-privacy-reform-bill-bill#Privacy #PIPEDA #BillC36 #CanadianPrivacyLaw #DataProtection #PrivacyLaw #Canada #PPCDA #DigitalPrivacy #LegalUpdate #privacylawyer Where you can find me► Privacylawyer blog: https://blog.privacylawyer.ca► My law firm: https://www.mcinnescooper.com/people/david-fraser► Twitter: https://twitter.com/privacylawyer► LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidtsfraserDisclaimer: This is intended for education and information only and should not be taken as legal advice.
