No. 897106845RR0001 Oakville MPP Stephen Craw- ford has brought forward a pri-ford has brought forward a pri-f vate member's bill, which if passed will prevent government institutions from obtaining per- sonal information from Ontari- ans without their consent. Crawford noted that when consumers enter into credit agreements, they disclose sensi- tive, personal information such a credit history. He said through financial transactions such as credit card purchases and online shopping, day-to-day footprints are collect- ed. The Safeguarding our Infor- mation Act, 2018 seeks to amend the Consumer Protection Act, the Consumer Reporting Act, and the Credit Unions and Caiss- es Populaires Act to require that government institutions re- questing to obtain personal in- formation may only disclose in-formation may only disclose in-f formation if the consumer con-formation if the consumer con-f sents. "All Ontarians deserve to be protected by a robust consumer protection law and trust that their consent will be obtained prior to the disclosure of their sensitive personal information to a government institution," said Crawford. The Oakville MPP put this private members bill together following a recent Nanos Re-following a recent Nanos Re-f search survey of Canadians in which 75 per cent of respondents opposed Statistics Canada ac- cessing personal records with- out consent. The study also found that giv- en the opportunity 57 per cent of respondents would not consent to having their personal finan- cial data shared with Statistics Canada. "In our modern economy, con- sumers increasingly shop online and use their credit cards more frequently to pay for everydayfrequently to pay for everydayf items," said Crawford. "Our privacy laws must be up- dated and enhanced to ensure consumers are protected." The bill will be debated in the legislature on Thursday, Nov. 29.
