General Principles
Voluntary Request for Preservation
- For greater certainty
487.0195 (1) For greater certainty, no preservation demand, preservation order or production order is necessary for a peace officer or public officer to ask a person to voluntarily preserve data that the person is not prohibited by law from preserving or to voluntarily provide a document to the officer that the person is not prohibited by law from disclosing.
- No civil or criminal liability
(2) A person who preserves data or provides a document in those circumstances does not incur any criminal or civil liability for doing so.
2014, c. 31, s. 20.
Preservation Demand
- Preservation demand
487.012 (1) A peace officer or public officer may make a demand to a person in Form 5.001 requiring them to preserve computer data that is in their possession or control when the demand is made.
- Conditions for making demand
(2) The peace officer or public officer may make the demand only if they have reasonable grounds to suspect that
- (a) an offence has been or will be committed under this or any other Act of Parliament or has been committed under a law of a foreign state;
- (b) in the case of an offence committed under a law of a foreign state, an investigation is being conducted by a person or authority with responsibility in that state for the investigation of such offences; and
- (c) the computer data is in the person’s possession or control and will assist in the investigation of the offence.
- Limitation
(3) A demand may not be made to a person who is under investigation for the offence referred to in paragraph (2)(a) [preservation demand – conditions for demand – suspect an offence].
- Expiry and revocation of demand
(4) A peace officer or public officer may revoke the demand by notice given to the person at any time. Unless the demand is revoked earlier, the demand expires
- (a) in the case of an offence that has been or will be committed under this or any other Act of Parliament, 21 days after the day on which it is made; and
- (b) in the case of an offence committed under a law of a foreign state, 90 days after the day on which it is made.
- Conditions in demand
(5) The peace officer or public officer who makes the demand may impose any conditions in the demand that they consider appropriate — including conditions prohibiting the disclosure of its existence or some or all of its contents — and may revoke a condition at any time by notice given to the person.
- No further demand
(6) A peace officer or public officer may not make another demand requiring the person to preserve the same computer data in connection with the investigation.

- (b) that a peace officer or public officer intends to apply or has applied for a warrant or an order in connection with the investigation to obtain a document that contains the computer data.
