Environment and Climate Change Canada (Re), 2021 OIC 36
Environment and Climate Change Canada
The complainant alleged that Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) did not conduct a reasonable search for a draft report prepared by the Northgate Group. The investigation found that ECCC overwrote the original draft report by saving edits directly to the USB key it was provided on. This action meant the original draft report no longer exists and could not be produced, irreversibly undermining the complainant's right of access. The OIC found the complaint well-founded, noting the importance of preserving records for transparency and accountability.
