Final Answer :
False
Explanation :
PIPEDA is in force in all provinces and territories in Canada that do not have their own privacy laws that are deemed substantially similar to PIPEDA. Quebec, British Columbia, and Alberta have their own privacy laws, and therefore PIPEDA does not apply to most private-sector organizations in these provinces.
