British Columbia’s Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy system is in trouble. Through changes made by judicial decisions and by governments, as well as growing delays in the time it takes for freedom of information requests to be processed, the system has eroded and requires action to repair it.

This submission to the Special Committee to Review the British Columbia Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act by long-time CCPA research associate Keith Reynolds describes the problems with the province’s freedom of information regime and makes recommendations to address them.
