Introduction
The Access to Information Act provides a right of access to information in records under the control of a government institution in accordance with the principles that government information should be available to the public, that necessary exceptions to the right of access should be limited and specific and that decisions on the disclosure of government information should be reviewed independently of government.
This report has been prepared and will be tabled in Parliament in accordance with Section 94 of the Access to Information Act. The information contained in this report pertains to the administration of the Access to Information Act within the Parks Canada Agency.
The Parks Canada Agency’s mandate is to protect and present nationally significant examples of Canada’s natural and cultural heritage and to foster public understanding, appreciation and enjoyment in ways that ensure their ecological and commemorative integrity for present and future generations. The Agency is responsible for operations under multiple pieces of federal legislation and protects approximately 450 000 km2 of Canada’s terrestrial, marine and freshwater ecosystems. It is the steward of 47 national parks, one national urban park, four national marine conservation areas and 171 national historic sites, including nine heritage canals. The Agency is highly decentralized with team members located across the country and often in remote areas.
Organizational structure
Parks Canada’s Access to Information and Privacy Office is comprised of six (6) full-time employees. Internal policies and procedures have been developed in order to meet its obligations in compliance with the Access to Information Act, regulations and Treasury Board policies, and those continue to be improved on a regular basis.
Parks Canada met its statutory deadlines for all requests during the reporting period. Parks Canada is committed to transparency, service to Canadians and the expeditious processing of access to information requests and has put in place the systems and processes necessary to meet this commitment.
Parks Canada did not enter in any service agreements under section 96 of the Access to Information Act during the reporting period.

Performance 2020-2021
The following report represents an overview of activities carried out within the Agency during the reporting period of April 1, 2020 to March 31, 2021. The Statistical Report (Appendix A) contains detailed statistics on the Access to Information requests processed under the Access to Information Act.
100 percent of requests were responded to within legislated timelines.
Between April 1, 2020 and March 31, 2021, the Agency received one hundred and twenty-four (124) formal information requests under the Access to Information Act. Thirty-one (31) requests were carried forward from the previous reporting period.

Time limitations
During fiscal year 2020-2021, 64 percent of completed requests (84 cases) were processed within the initial 30-day period. In 9 percent of completed requests (12 cases) a 30-day time extension was required in order to conduct consultations with either third parties and/or other government departments. In 27 percent of the remaining completed requests (36 cases) an extension of over 30 days was required because of the number of records requested to enable the Agency to conduct necessary consultations or due to the complexity of the requests.
Formal/informal interface
Thirty-seven (37) informal requests were released under the Access to Information Act, which represent a 60 percent decrease from the previous reporting period. These requests concerned documents that were previously disclosed in response to information requests.
In addition, Agency officials respond to informal requests from the public and contact the ATIP Office for guidance on the disclosure of information through informal processes. Agency officials are aware of the importance of the legislation and promptly refer formal information requests to the ATIP Office.
The ATIP Office also reviewed responses to parliamentary questions and audit and evaluation reports for publishing on the Agency’s internet site, and provided strategic advice on Access to Information in support of the Agency’s programs. The ATIP Office also reviewed all material that is subject to proactive disclosure.
Consultations received from other institutions and organizations
The Agency received thirty-one (31) consultations under the Access to Information Act from other government institutions and/or organizations. Eight (8) consultations were carried forward from the previous reporting period. Thirty-seven (37) consultations were completed before the end of March 2021. Two (2) consultations were carried forward to the next reporting period as they were received at the end of the reporting period under review.
Impact of COVID-19 and mitigation measures
Exceptional measures have been taken by Parks Canada to support the government's response to COVID-19. The Agency reacted quickly to the COVID-19 challenge. ATIP staff have continued processing requests while working remotely since March 16, 2020.
Initially, due to Agency sites being closed, network access challenges and the shift to telework, some officials had limited to no access to their offices to obtain requested paper records meaning some delays in receiving documents by the ATIP Office. The Agency worked diligently to provide service to clients, and communicated with its clients clearly during the challenge that delays may be possible during the processing of their requests. Despite these challenges, 100 percent of requests were responded to within legislated timelines.
The ATIP Office mitigated potential operational impacts by switching to processing all documents electronically and by receiving electronic submissions on shared drives and importing them into the case management system. The ATIP Office also began delivery of responses electronically via epost connect.
Reporting on access to information fees for the purposes of the Service Fees Act
In accordance with the Interim Directive on the Administrative of the Access to Information Act, (effective May 5, 2016), Parks Canada waives all fees prescribed by the Act and Regulations, other than the $5 application fee set out in paragraph 7(1)(a) of the Regulations. The total fees collected were $640.
A total of $568,447 was incurred by the ATIP Secretariat to administer the Access to Information Act, including $517,552 in salary costs, $32,812 for professional services contracts and $18,083 in material costs.
Training and awareness
Facilitating efficient and transparent access to information and personal information for Canadians is a priority for Parks Canada.
Ten (10) training sessions were given to Agency employees in 2020-2021. In total, two hundred and twenty-four (224) employees attended these sessions.
To ensure that all employees of the Agency are aware of the legislation and their obligations, general awareness sessions are also given periodically to provide basic information on the provisions of the Access to Information Act. Furthermore, there is a comprehensive section on Access to Information and Privacy on the Parks Canada’s Intranet site that is available to all employees.
Policies, guidelines, procedures and initiatives
During the reporting period, the ATIP Office was continuously ensuring that its policies and procedures for processing requests made pursuant to the Access to Information Act were up to date and that adjustments were made to areas where the need for improvement was identified.
Summary of key issues and actions taken on complaints
During the reporting period under review, sixteen (16) complaints were filed with the Office of the Information Commissioner of Canada.
The complaints largely concerned exemptions and extension of time limits. Parks Canada has worked closely and collaboratively with the Office of the Commissioner to resolve these complaints and of those complaints, two (2) were discontinued and one (1) was resolved during the reporting period. Parks Canada Agency was not involved in Federal Court cases or audits during this reporting Period.
Monitoring Compliance
The Agency monitors the time required to process access to information requests. When the need for improvements are identified, internal processes are adjusted. Parks Canada met its statutory deadlines for all requests during the reporting period
In addition, weekly meetings are held between the ATIP Office and Agency executives in order to monitor active and completed requests including the requests received and completed, pages received and processed, and the complexity of the requests. Weekly reports that provide details on the status of requests are shared with program liaisons and departmental senior managers as well as with the President & Chief Executive Officer’s office.
