The information rights landscape in British Columbia is changing. The provincial government has begun rolling out its “Government 2.0: Citizens @ The Center” initiative. Meant to increase the flow of citizen data between government bodies, service providers and citizens, these changes promise to open up “exciting opportunities for citizens to directly engage with their government.” But what do these changes mean for freedom of information and privacy in British Columbia?
