Privacy in Quebec is about to get a major makeover — one that may lead to wider reforms across Canada. In September, lawmakers enacted Bill 64, which aims to modernize crucial aspects of the various laws governing individuals’ privacy in Quebec, amending provisions involving consent, data protection officers, notice, individuals’ rights, and more.

It is important for privacy professionals across Canada to understand the operational impacts posed by Bill 64 given the chance that all provinces may soon follow suit in modernizing their privacy and data protection statutes.

On May 11th, join us for a complimentary CPD session presented by the Quebec Branch with guest speaker Charles S. Morgan. Charles is the national co-leader of McCarthy Tétrault’s Cyber/Data Group and the former leader of the firm’s Technology Law group. He is also the former President of the International Technology Lawyers Association (iTechLaw).

A nationally recognized leader in cybersecurity, data protection, and technology law, Charles brings a deep understanding of disruptive technologies, providing practical advice to help clients fully exploit the promise of innovative solutions while managing risk.
