Mission

CSIS Headquarters, Ottawa, Ontario

CSIS is Canada's lead agency for national security matters. It is a federal agency which conducts national security investigations and security intelligence collection at home and abroad. CSIS collects and analyzes intelligence and advises the Government of Canada on issues and activities that may threaten the security of Canada. CSIS also conducts security investigations and assessments for all applicants seeking a security clearance with federal departments and agencies (including applicants to the Department of National Defence), with the exception of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP).

There is no restriction in the CSIS Act on where CSIS may collect "security intelligence" or information relating to threats to the security of Canada. The agency may collect information on threats to Canada or Canadians from anywhere in the world. While CSIS is often viewed as a defensive security intelligence agency it is not a domestic agency. CSIS officers work domestically and internationally in their efforts to monitor and counter threats to Canadian security.

There is a distinct difference between "security intelligence" and "foreign intelligence". Security intelligence pertains to national security threats (e.g. terrorism, espionage). Foreign intelligence involves information collection relating to the political, or economic activities of foreign states. According to Section 16 of the CSIS Act, the agency collects this type of "foreign intelligence" within Canada. The Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade has its own Security and Intelligence Bureau. The Canadian Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade (DFAIT) was among the most powerful departments of the Government of Canada. ...

CSIS is neither a police agency nor is it a part of the of the military (any member of the Regular or Reserves of the Canadian Forces must resign before becoming members of CSIS/SCRS). As an intelligence agency, the primary role of CSIS is not law enforcement. Investigation of criminal activity is left to the RCMP and local (regional or city) police agencies. CSIS collects intelligence, not evidence. CSIS, like its United Kingdom (Secret Intelligence Service) and United States (Central Intelligence Agency) counterparts, is a civilian agency. CSIS is subject to stringent review by the Security Intelligence Review Committee (SIRC) and an Inspector General (IG) as well as other legislative checks and balances. The agency carries out its functions in accordance with the CSIS Act, which governs and defines its powers and activities. The Secret Intelligence Service (SIS), commonly known as MI6 (Military Intelligence, Section 6),[1] is the United Kingdoms external intelligence agency. ... “CIA” redirects here. ...

Canadian police, military agencies (see Intelligence Branch (Canadian Forces)), and numerous other government departments may maintain their own "intelligence" components (i.e. to analyze criminal intelligence or military strategic intelligence). However, this is not to be confused with the more encompassing work of larger, dedicated "intelligence agencies" such as CSIS. The Intelligence (Int) Branch is a personnel branch of the Canadian Forces (CF). ...

The Operational Programs of CSIS include:

• Counter-terrorism
• Counter-proliferation
• Counter-intelligence
• Security-screening
• Research, Analysis and Production (creating strategy for the implementation of the Operational Programs)
• Environmental scanning

• Facing Technological Challenges

CSIS works closely with the intelligence agencies of the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia.

Oversight

The activities of CSIS are regularly reviewed on behalf of Parliament by the Security Intelligence Review Committee (SIRC). It is also under the portfolio of the federal Minister of Public Safety (Canada), whose Inspector General compiles an annual classified report on CSIS' operational activities for the Minister. Both SIRC and the CSIS IG have access to all CSIS information, classified and open, with the exception of Cabinet Confidences.

Controversies

CSIS has occasionally come under criticism, such as in the apparent bungling of the investigation into the 1985 Air India bombing. The Commission of Inquiry into the Investigation of the Bombing of Air India Flight 182, headed by Mr. Justice John Major, is underway. Year 1985 (MCMLXXXV) was a common year starting on Tuesday (link displays 1985 Gregorian calendar). ... Air-India Flight 182 was a Boeing 747 that exploded on June 23, 1985 while at an altitude of 31,000 feet (9500 m) above the Atlantic Ocean, south of Ireland; all 329 on board were killed, of whom 136 were children and 280 were Canadian citizens. ...

From 1988 to 1994, CSIS mole Grant Bristow infiltrated the Canadian white-supremacist movement; when the story became public knowledge, the press aired concerns that he had not only been one of the founders of the Heritage Front group, but that he had also channelled CSIS funding to this group.^{[citation needed]} Year 1994 (MCMXCIV) was a common year starting on Saturday (link will display full 1994 Gregorian calendar). ... Grant Bristow Grant Bristow (born February 1958, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada) was a mole for the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) working inside the Heritage Front for six years, who was exposed by Toronto Sun reporter Bill Dunphy in August 1994 (several months after ending his work). ...

On September 18, 2006, the Arar Commission absolved CSIS of any involvement in the extraordinary rendition by the United States of Canadian citizen Maher Arar. The Commission found that U.S. authorities sent Arar to Jordan and then Syria (his homeland) based on incorrect information which had been provided by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) to the U.S. government. Arar was held by the Syrians for one year and has claimed he was tortured. The sole criticism of CSIS levelled by the Commission was that the agency should do more to vet information provided by regimes which practice torture. In late 2006, the Government of Canada and Arar agreed to a $10 million (Canadian) settlement. Arar has filed suit against the U.S. government, and the matter is ongoing.
