The document obtained (access it here: https://theccf.ca/wp-content/uploads/SolGen-2020-02163-records-1.pdf)">https://theccf.ca/wp-conten... is an audit of the use of the COVID-19 database, which allowed police access to info on anyone who tested COVID-19 positive in the province.

The document outlines that police officers were caught using the COVID-19 database to look up names unrelated to active calls, to do wholesale postal code searches for COVID-19 cases, and to even do broad based searches outside officers’ own cities.

Concern over police access to sensitive health information was precisely due potential misuse & abuse. A group of health providers, community organizations & individuals wrote a letter outlining these concerns, with no response: https://www.wecantpolicethepandemic.ca/programs ">https://www.wecantpolicethepandemic.ca/programs&...
