My colleagues at both ITAC and within the RCMP and from CSIS would be better able to paint a picture of the types of actors we're speaking of, but I think what is most important to understand about IMVE is that it is a homegrown phenomenon. It's not a phenomenon unique to Canada by any stretch; it is transnational in nature. Many of these organizations have cross-border and transborder relationships, but these are not threats being perpetuated from abroad. These are threats that are being fostered within our own society.
