Public Services and Procurement Canada (Re), 2022 OIC 47
Public Services and Procurement Canada
The complainant alleged that Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC) failed to respond to two access requests within the statutory deadlines. The requests were for records related to CORCAN's Prison Farm program. PSPC claimed significant extensions and ultimately missed the extended deadlines, leading to a "deemed refusal". The OIC found the complaints well founded due to the unreasonable delay.

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (Re), 2022 OIC 01
Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada
The complainant alleged that Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) improperly withheld information under paragraph 16(2)(c) of the Act, claiming disclosure could facilitate the commission of an offence. IRCC redacted information from the "History" field of 64 immigration application records. After an investigation and multiple attempts by IRCC to justify the exemption, the institution ultimately agreed to release all the information. The OIC found the complaints to be well-founded, concluding that IRCC had not justified withholding the information.
