This is your Access and Privacy News Summary for Saturday, June 14th.
We’ve got stories from across the country shaped by access to information—from national defense funding to local integrity issues, wildfire preparedness, and controversial provincial actions.
We’ll follow that with a scan of cybersecurity incidents, data breaches, and surveillance concerns that are hitting public institutions hard.
Then we take a closer look at how Canadians near the U.S. border are navigating growing privacy concerns—while south of the border, Trump’s appointments and surveillance powers reveal the ongoing shift toward autocracy.
And we wrap with an important conversation and call to action from FIPA President Mike Larsen and Executive Director Jason Woywada on Bills C-2 and C-4.
