What are the key requirements of the Canada AIDA?

Risk assessment and mitigation for high-impact AI systems Incident reporting obligations Record-keeping requirements

International·Pending

Canada Artificial Intelligence and Data Act (AIDA)

Proposed Canadian legislation that would regulate high-impact AI systems, requiring risk assessments, mitigation measures, and incident reporting. Part of Bill C-27, Canada's broader digital governance reform package. Status uncertain following the 2024 Canadian federal election and change of government.

What this means for your team

AIDA has not passed and its future is unclear following the change of government in Canada. Monitor the status if you serve Canadian customers. In the interim, GDPR-equivalent privacy obligations apply via Canada's PIPEDA and Quebec Law 25. Compliance with EU AI Act requirements would provide a strong foundation for future Canadian compliance if AIDA moves forward.
