For example, a student’s course enrolment and academic performance. An example of what would not be significant enough includes records that simply list student names and generic attendance information not associated to any particular student and reveals only the fact that a student attended a certain school during a brief point in time.121 Criminal history includes an individual’s convictions under criminal laws such as the Criminal Code (Canada) and findings of guilt under the Youth Criminal Justice Act (Canada) or the former Young Offenders Act (Canada). Other offences include “Regulatory offences” such as: • Offences under other federal statutes or regulations (for example, the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (Canada)); • Offences under provincial statutes or regulations (for example, The Traffic Safety Act (Saskatchewan); or • Offences under municipal by-laws.122 Employment history is the type of information normally found in a personnel file such as performance reviews, evaluations, disciplinary actions taken, reasons for leaving a job, information in a résumé or leave transactions.123 120 British Columbia Government Services, FOIPPA Policy Definitions at https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/governments/services-for-government/policiesprocedures/foippa-manual/policy-definitions.
