The London Police Service snooped on private medical information10,475 times between April and July. It used a provincial database containing the personal health records of people who tested positive for COVID-19 at one of the highest rates in Ontario. Law enforcement gained the power to access people's personal medical information when the database was shared by an emergency order of the Ontario government in April. The order gave police officers the ability to access the names, dates of birth, and addresses of anyone in Ontario who tested positive for COVID-19. A group of legal and civil liberties organizations challenged the directive on the grounds that police access to such data was a violation of individuals' constitutional rights to privacy and equality. The power was revoked by the Ontario government on July 22.
