Mr. Speaker, what a bunch of bunk.
I can say that CSEC is prohibited by law from targeting Canadians at home or abroad, directly or indirectly. The CSEC's independent watchdog said in his annual report this year that he is “concerned that commentators are raising fears that are based, not on fact, but rather, on partial and sometimes incorrect information regarding certain CSEC activities.” He also verified that “CSEC's activities do not intentionally target the private communications of Canadians or any person in Canada, which would be unlawful.” The opposition members should read the watchdog's report.
