Citizenship and Immigration committee  I'd be inclined to answer it from the opposite direction. We're not seeing a lot of CEOs being radicalized—

Citizenship and Immigration committee  —so there are some areas where you don't see it. But beyond that, the possibilities are relatively wide.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Well, I think his answer spoke to the fact that if they're engaging in threats to national security, ultimately, at that stage, they are not well integrated into Canada. As to what their status may have been earlier, and whether they were at one time well integrated, they may w

Citizenship and Immigration committee  I can't speak specifically to the Toronto 18. That predated my time with CSIS. But we certainly do have instances; Mr. Khawaja, I believe, received training overseas, came back to Canada, and was involved in a threat related to the U.K.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  I would start by saying—and then I'll turn it over—that it only appears that in many respects they're a step ahead of us, because those are the ones we haven't caught, dealt with, or apprehended in some way. That doesn't account for the many people who have been identified, some

I am the assistant director of intelligence at CSIS. I am responsible for the production and dissemination of service intelli

Information & Ethics committee  Yes, absolutely.

Information & Ethics committee  I'll start and then I'll turn the floor over to my colleague. Protecting information is part of our core business. Every piece of information that we collect, that we retain, is reported into a specific data bank. Those data banks have limited access, so that they are not availa

Information & Ethics committee  I've come here today to talk about the administration of the Privacy Act, as opposed to those policy developments that may take place, so I don't have a particular response to the recommendations.

Information & Ethics committee  I'd certainly be pleased to follow up with the committee with a response, but, as I said, I undertook to come here today to testify on how we actually handle and administer the act currently, as opposed to policy pieces. If I'm mistaken in that understanding, then, as I said, we'

Information & Ethics committee  We'll follow up.

Information & Ethics committee  Not all of our agreements with international partners are written agreements. Some of them are oral agreements. They are all documented as being agreements under the provisions of our act, however.
