	Special Report on CSIS and Globalisation: CSIS Motivations
		The Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS), a domestic intelligence organisation under the authority of the federal Department of the Solicitor General, is responsible for collection, analyses, production, and dissemination of national security intelligence.
		Because of limited resources, Canadian funding decisions for security programs (anti-terrorism, organized crime, etc) are based on the likelihood of a specified event or activity actually taking place, not the country's overall vulnerability to civil disturbances.
		The existence of coordination among various departments and the intelligence community through the interdepartmental committee on security and intelligence, and monitoring by the Security and Intelligence Coordinator within the Privy Council Office, has not proven to be an effective collegial forum.

		The Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) was created by Act of Parliament in 1984 as an agency of the Department of the Solicitor General.
		The service monitors racist and other hate groups and, in one well-publicized operation, recruited an informant in one of the most prominent of the white supremacist groups in Canada, the Heritage Front.
		The 5-member Security Intelligence Review Committee (SIRC) and the CSIS inspector general can examine all aspects of CSIS's operations and can report any irregularities directly to the solicitor general, who is a minister in the federal Cabinet.

		The RCMP Security Service should be disbanded, McDonald concluded, and a new separate, civilian organization put in its place to ensure that security intelligence activities were effective, and at the same time carried out in accordance with the rule of law and accountable to government.
		Security intelligence activities are on the increase in other parts of the government, in large measure because of the evolving nature of international threats to Canadians.
		Canadians decided twenty years ago that they would not tolerate a security intelligence agency, irrespective of its goals or achievements, that did not act within the law and in accordance with widely accepted principles of democracy and governmental responsibility.

		The Security Service had its genesis in certain duties assigned in 1864 by Sir John A. Macdonald to what was to become the Dominion Police Force.
		It is not, however, ideal for a security intelligence agency which, perforce, acts in secrecy; and which, indeed, requires a degree of political control.
		Douglas was not a security risk, it recommended that her security clearance be restored and that she be reinstated in her former employment.

		Security agencies at Seattle, however, were caught off-guard by the large number of demonstrators and scope of representation, combined with the use of sophisticated methods and technology that effectively shut down the Conference.
		While security agencies must know the nature of the opposition they are facing and be prepared, they must be careful of the form and extent of their response.
		Sound intelligence arrangements will be crucial to the successful implementation of precautionary measures, especially to avoid errors of over- or under-commitment of resources and to preclude draconian responses or steps which would promote violent reactions from protesters.

	CSIS 1993 Public Report - English (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Although this 1993 report begins with a broad overview of the current security intelligence environment, its primary purpose is to outline the nature of the threat to the public safety of Canadians, by which is meant, essentially, the threat of terrorism, the Service's foremost concern at the present time.
		The Service's mandate relative to economic espionage is to collect information, investigate where necessary and report to government on the threat posed by this type of activity.
		CSIS is very much concerned with attempts by intelligence services and others to gain access to technology or expertise that might be of use in the development of nuclear or other weapons of mass destruction, as well as missile-related means of their delivery.

	Alleged Toronto terrorist cell included Canadian Security Intelligence Service mole - Looking Glass News
		While Shaikh, the CSIS mole, led the camp, members of the Canadian Armed Forces’ elite special operations force were deployed a few minutes’ helicopter ride away, on the chance that Canada’s security establishment decided this was the time to stage the “smashing” of the alleged terrorist cell.
		At the very least, the confirmation that a CSIS mole was operating within the alleged Toronto terrorist cell raises anew the question of the extent to which many of their alleged activities, including the attempted purchase of explosive ingredients, were not only facilitated by the authorities’ deliberate inaction, but also suggested and encouraged by them.
		Given Shaikh’s longstanding and lucrative ties to Canada’s security forces and the importance the authorities have attached to this case, it is unlikely he would have acted without their approval or encouragement.

	Canadian Report on Doomsday Movements (CESNUR)
		Often overlooked in the discussion of emerging security intelligence issues is the challenge of contending with religious movements whose defining characteristic is an adherence to non-traditional spiritual belief systems.
		This tends to lead to their physical, social and psychological withdrawal, intensifying a leader’s power and increasing the homogenization and dependency of the followers.
		Another potential threat lies in members who are already involved in the political process; the Solar Temple’s roster included the mayor of a Canadian town and a provincial government official.

		Canada’s spy agency, the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS), encouraged by self-proclaimed terrorism experts such as American Muslim-bashing journalist Steven Emerson and, more recently, pro-Israel propagandist Yehudit Barsky, has intensified its campaign to target Muslims and Arabs.
		Elcock is on record as stating that terrorist groups have begun using Canada as a base of operations, and as a source for financial and material support.
		The unfortunate consequence of following such anti-democratic advice will be the suspension of certain fundamental freedoms cherished in our Canadian democracy and the denial of humanitarian assistance to those in need around the world in times of crisis.
