Freedom of Information and Privacy Office

Information that you need from the Ontario Ministry of Transportation (MTO) can in most instances be obtained simply by contacting the appropriate MTO office. If you're unable to obtain satisfaction from the usual sources of information, the Freedom of Information and Privacy Office is a "one-window" bilingual service to help access MTO information under the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (FOIPPA).

The Freedom of Information and Privacy Office also co-ordinates MTO's participation in appeals, inquiries and investigations by the Information and Privacy Commissioner of Ontario.
