The OECD, of course. They're the international privacy powerhouse. Though I do wonder if the CSA had a hand in translating those principles into Canadian law.

Hmm, I was leaning towards the OECD, but the CRT option is intriguing. Maybe they had some behind-the-scenes influence?

I'm pretty sure it's the CSA. They're the ones who developed the famous privacy standard that's widely used in Canada.
