Wait, are we sure about that? Seems a bit sketchy.

I think B is the right answer. Public info doesn’t need consent.

C is definitely a no-go, but B makes sense.

I’m really torn between B and D. I feel like D could be a valid exception, but I can’t recall if that’s explicitly stated in PIPEDA.

This reminds me of a practice question we did where the focus was on the original purpose of data use. I think C is definitely a situation that needs consent.

I’m not entirely sure, but I feel like option B might be the right answer since publicly available info doesn’t usually require consent.

I think this question is tricky. I remember something about express consent being needed when the use is outside of what people would reasonably expect.
