The Last Podcast

March 31, 2025 - Ron Kruzeniski, Information and Privacy Commissioner

Well, all of a sudden, my term is just about up. It will end April 30, 2025. I thought it was time to talk about my 10 plus years as the Information and Privacy Commissioner. A thank you to staff past and present. Together we accomplished a lot, and I thought it was worth talking about.

For examples, in the almost 11 years, we wrote, issued and posted over 1230 reports and were able to get those reports to public bodies and applicants within, on average, 105 days. We were also able to provide residents of Saskatchewan with advice 12,746 times and in the last year we provided that advice within, 48 hours.

Our office also developed a Guide to FOIP and a Guide to LA FOIP, which gave public bodies and residents an idea of what we expected when we did a review or an investigation.

So, instead of asking questions in this last Podcast, Diane Aldridge, Deputy Commissioner asked the questions and put me on the hot seat to give good answers. I hope I did, but I will let you be the judge. Please check out the last Podcast.
