- [FAQ](https://www.managedprivacy.ca/privacy-compliance-canada-faq/): Canadian private-sector privacy compliance is still built mainly on PIPEDA, provincial private-sector privacy laws in Quebec, Alberta and British Columbia, and sector-specific rules such as health privacy laws. In June 2026, the federal government introduced Bill C-36, which would enact the Protecting Privacy and Consumer Data Act, or PPCDA. If passed, it would be the most significant change to Canada’s private-sector privacy law in more than 25 years, but it is not yet in force. Businesses should treat Bill C-36 as a readiness signal, not as current law. The practical work is clear: maintain a privacy management program, know what personal information you collect, assess vendors, document consent, prepare for breach response, and review AI and automated decision systems.
