The Commission d’accès à l’information (CAI) will not be publishing an English version of guidance that it provided in January 2026 on the prevention of confidentiality incidents by private organizations. On the occasion, the CAI published both a guide and a checklist.
Considering the interest of organizations and individuals throughout Canada for Québec’s privacy legislation, BLG has made available this unofficial translation of both tools in an effort to facilitate incident prevention. Readers should refer to these documents with care and review the original French versions published by the CAI. In the event of a discrepancy between the original French versions and their unofficial translation to English, the French versions shall take precedence.
