Introduction
The Model Code for the Protection of Personal Information being developed under the auspices of the Canadian Standards Association (CSA) has the potential to advance the cause of personal-data protection in Canada. No other country has attempted to negotiate and establish on a voluntary basis a general minimum standard for privacy protection in its private sector. As an…

The international community has decided to make this standard available only in
the English language version. It has been adopted as a National Standard of
Canada on this basis.
This National Standard of Canada is equivalent to International Standard
ISO/IEC 11573:1994.
1.1 Scope
This International Standard contains requirements necessary for the
synchronization of PISNs. Timing within a…
Soil quality — Extraction of trace elements soluble in aqua regia
Specifies a method for the extraction, with aqua regia, of trace elements from soils and similar materials containing less than about 20 % (m/m) organic carbon. Materials containing more than about 20 % (m/m) organic carbon will require treatment with additional nitric acid. The resulting solution is suitable for the determination of trace elements using appropriate atomic spectrometric…

Specifies how tests can be designed to verify whether bitstreams and decoders meet requirements specified in parts 1, 2 and 3 of ISO/IEC 11172. Summarizes the requirements, cross references them to characteristics, and defines how compliance with them can be tested. Gives guidelines how to construct tests and determine their outcome. Defines some actual tests only for audio.

Some Assembly Required - A CSA Guide to Writing Instruction Manuals
Introduction
Remember the last time you spent three hours of frustration trying to assemble your child's bicycle? You know, the one that the kid next door finally had to put together for you! Or how about the digital clock that constantly flashes 12:00 because you lost the instructions and can't figure out the senseless sequence of buttons that must be pushed to set the time? You…

Grounding and Bonding for Telecommunications in Commercial Buildings
2 Scope
2.1 General
2.1.1 This Standard specifies the requirements for a uniform
telecommunications grounding and bonding infrastructure that shall be followed
within commercial buildings where telecommunications equipment is intended to
be installed.

conjunction with other grounding and bonding systems (e.g.,…
Determination of solubility in nitric acid of plutonium in unirradiated mixed oxide fuel pellets (U,...
Specifies an analytical method for determining the solubility in nitric acid of plutonium in whole pellets of unirradiated mixed oxide fuel (light water reactor fuels). The results provide information about the expected dissolution behaviour of irradiated pellets under industrial reprocessing conditions.
