Mr. Daniel Rogers at the Access to Information, Privacy and Ethics Committee

I'm saying that the decision of a government to provide such a recommendation to Canadians, or make a decision for them, is best not made by CSIS.

CSIS can provide a national security assessment, but it's very important that other factors be brought into those decisions. The decision on TikTok Canada is very distinct from the decision on TikTok in general, because there are very different factors at play.
