In Alberta, the political parties are expressly excluded from the application of our private sector privacy law, PIPA. I don't know off the top of my head whether or not there are privacy provisions in election acts; there usually are.
We are looking at this as part of our recommendations for our PIPA review, and we will be recommending that political parties be subject to the Personal Information Protection Act, so I'll have occasion at that point to look at our Election Act and see what controls are in there.
