A former privacy commissioner will be paid $50,000 to tell the British
Columbia government how best to implement recommendations in a stinging
report that said officials — including those in the premier's office —
routinely deleted information.
Technology Minister Amrik Virk said Monday David Loukidelis has until Dec.
15 to complete a report that advises the government on addressing 11
recommendations and five findings made by Information and Privacy
Commissioner Elizabeth Denham.

Government officials in B.C. have been accused of employing an array of
tactics to avoid releasing sensitive information—including emails
concerning the "Highway of Tears" issue of missing and murdered aboriginal
women.
There have been stories of staffers "triple deleting" emails, denying the
existence of files, and just plain stalling in the face of FOI requests.
