About the Canada Energy Regulator
The Canada Energy Regulator is an independent federal regulator of several parts of Canada’s energy industry. It regulates pipelines, energy development and trade on behalf of Canadians in a way that protects the public and the environment while supporting efficient markets. The Minister of Natural Resources is responsible for this organization.
The Canada Energy Regulator (CER) was established by Parliament to regulate pipelines, energy development and trade in the Canadian public interest. Before making a decision or recommendation, we factor in economic, environmental and social considerations. By considering all the evidence with these things in mind, we are able to make decisions and recommendations that represent the ever- changing interests and concerns of Canadians. This is key to achieving our vision of being active and effective in Canada’s pursuit of a sustainable energy future. We also regulate for the complete life cycle of a pipeline or power line project. The public expects us to hold the companies we regulate accountable for the safe operation of CER-regulated energy infrastructure.

The Privacy Act
The Privacy Act (the Act) gives individuals the right of access to information about themselves held by the federal government, with certain specific and limited exceptions. The Act protects an individual's privacy by setting out provisions related to the collection, retention, use and disclosure of personal information.
In accordance with section 72 of the Act, the head of every federal institution is required to submit an Annual Report to Parliament on the administration of the Act following the close of each fiscal year. The Annual Reports are then tabled in Parliament pursuant to section 72 of the Act. This report describes how the Canada Energy Regulator (CER) fulfilled its privacy responsibilities during the fiscal year 2020–21.
Organizational Structure
Privacy requests at the CER are processed by the ATIP Office, which reports to the Vice President (VP), Data and Information Management, as the ATIP Coordinator.
Privacy requests are received primarily through two channels; through the mail or the ATIP Online Request Service (AORS), which was established in late 2018. Requests received through the mail are logged into the CER’s records management system by the Data & Information Management department and then forwarded to the ATIP Office.
As of the end of 2020-21, the CER has 4 full- time employees, who allocated a portion of their time to activities related to the Act. This includes the Group Leader ATIP, two ATIP Officers, and one ATIP Coordinator.
Delegation Order
The CER Act designates the CER CEO with the authority to exercise the powers, duties and functions of the Act. The CEO has historically delegated this authority.
The ATIP Office reports to the VP, Data and Information Management and the delegation authority has been permanently delegated.
This year, the new CEO reviewed the delegation order to ensure internal organizational alignment, appropriate oversight and operational efficiency. Under the current order, there are three Vice President positions that have been delegated full authority under the Act. They are: the VP, Data and Information Management (primary ATIP Coordinator), the VP, Regulatory Strategy and Coordination and the VP, Performance and Results (alternate ATIP Coordinators). From an operational standpoint, granting this authority to three individuals ensures that files can be reviewed and signed- off without undue delay.
See annex B for a copy of the delegation order.
Performance 2020–2021
The CER Act designates the CER CEO with the authority to exercise the powers, duties and functions of the Act. The CEO has historically delegated this authority.
Of the three closed requests responded to during this period, one request or 33% was responded to within the legislated timeline of 30 days with all material being disclosed. The second request was completed within 180 days and the third took more than 365 days and in both cases material was disclosed in part.

CER – Annual Report on the Privacy Act 2020–2021
Description:
This graph shows the number of requests received during reporting periods from 2015–16 to 2020–2021. The CER received no requests under the Act, a decrease as the CER received three requests in the previous reporting period.
Over the past three years the CER has received very few privacy requests, however one of those requests contained more than 5,000 pages to be processed, making the workload associated with the Privacy Act substantial for a small organization.
The CER did not receive any consultations from other institutions or organizations.
During 2020–21, the CER Access to Information and Privacy (ATIP) Office incurred $26,812 in salary costs and $0 in goods and services costs to administer the Act.
In 2020–21, the CER closed 3 requests. Of the requests closed during the reporting period, records for 33% were fully disclosed and 66% were disclosed in part.
During the COVID-19 pandemic work continued from home with minimal disruption and a slight increase in processing time.
See annex A for further statistical information.
Training and Awareness
Training was a significant area of focus for the CER’s ATIP Office this year. The use of screensaver tips was discontinued in favor of more direct outreach training efforts. The COVID work from home environment and introduction of new technologies presented unique privacy concerns. In addition to promoting privacy awareness through in-person online training, the ATIP Office also delivered a number of well-received presentations on obtaining meaningful consent as part of its training program.
Training on the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act was also offered by the ATIP Office which delivers both specialized training to respond to the needs of officers and clients, and general training to raise employees’ awareness of their responsibilities under these Acts. In this regard, the CER reviewed its ATIP training materials (i.e. tasking email, PowerPoint presentation, ATIP Tips Sheet, etc.) towards improving its training and communications with CER leadership and staff.
During 2020–21, the CER continued to require that all CER staff and contractors successfully pass the Access to Information and Privacy Fundamentals – I015 course offered by the Canadian School of Public Service (CSPS). During this reporting period, 42 CER employees and 22 contractors registered for the course with 60 completing it successfully.
The ATIP Office anticipates that increased awareness of the Act amongst employees will improve their ability to collect records, help them better identify information for potential redaction, and enable them to better support the ATIP Office’s processing of requests. The ultimate goal being release packages that are responsive to requesters.
Training also focused heavily on employees’ obligations under the Privacy Act with respect to protection of personal information. This was a considerable focus area for the ATIP Office this year, in light of an uptick in privacy breaches. In this regard, the CER also reviewed its internal privacy breach procedures and practices to ensure CER staff are aware of their obligations in the event of a privacy breach. The CER has adopted TBS’ privacy breach management procedures and utilizes the available suite of tools to assist in managing breaches.
The CER’s ATIP Officers received training by attending webinars offered by the Treasury Board‘s Information and Privacy Policy Department. The ATIP Office also participated in this year’s Right to Know week.
Policies, Guidelines, Procedures and Initiatives
Documentation and training materials on the CER ATIP program were updated and made available through the corporate intranet, along with links to other materials, such as the Acts, Treasury Board Secretariat policies and guidance documents, and a range of information management and guidance tools.
The CER adopted Treasury Board’s privacy breach management guidelines and further integrated this approach into the CER’s processes. Recommended improvements have been submitted to adjacent policies such as the Breach Management Policy and Policy on Email Management.
The CER continued to examine its ATIP procedures in an effort to enable continuous improvement and to identify opportunities for efficiencies in processing access to information and privacy requests.
Summary of Key Issues and Actions Taken on Complaints
During 2020–21, there were no new complaints registered with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner. As always, the CER will continue to work closely with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner to resolve complaints in a timely and efficient manner.
No appeals were made to the Federal Court of Canada during 2020–21.
Monitoring Compliance
The CER achieved a compliance rating of 33% for completed privacy requests closed within the legislated timeframe in 2020–21. The CER processed a total of 6983 pages and disclosed 4036 pages to requesters.
With regards to the timeliness of processing privacy requests, the ATIP Office regularly communicates progress updates to the ATIP Coordinator through the ATIP Group Leader. The ATIP Group Leader receives weekly updates from the ATIP Office regarding the status of all active requests, and has access to a central tracker that is updated on a regular basis to establish action items or flag upcoming due dates.
Material Privacy Breaches
There were seven investigations undertaken by the CER’s ATIP Office during 2020–21, and five of them were determined to be privacy breaches. Three incidents were emails containing personal information sent to the wrong address, and two were related to information disclosed without proper authorization. Although all instances were reported to the Treasury Board and Office of the Privacy Commissioner, all were determined to be non-material breaches.
In all instances, the ATIP Office applied the Treasury Board’s breach management procedures and worked with the relevant Office of Primary Interest and ATIP Coordinator to identify and implement administrative measures to mitigate the potential for future incidents. Overall, these incidents have helped the CER improve its handling and classification of personal information, as well as its information management practices.
Privacy Impact Assessments
During the 2020–21 reporting period, no privacy impact assessments were completed.
The CER posts summaries of completed privacy impact assessments on its external website and forwards copies of completed assessment reports to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner.
Public Interest Disclosures
The CER did not disclose any personal information under paragraphs 8(2)(e) or (m) of the Privacy Act.
