Canada’s spy agency issued an extraordinary warning Tuesday that the Chinese government is targeting Canadians, on the same day that the Federal Court published a previously secret ruling that allows deployment of a surveillance technology without warrant.In a series of tweets, CSIS explained how China’s intelligence services are targeting Canadians inside and outside China.
“They identify people who are actively looking for jobs in strategic sectors or who have high-value credentials,” the thread said. The tweets coincided with the publication of an October 2022 ruling from Federal Court Chief Justice Paul Crampton that allows CSIS to employ a certain type of technology inside and outside Canada without a warrant.
A hint about the type of technology appears to be contained in Crampton’s reference to the National Security and Intelligence Review Committee and its 2019 report to the federal minister of public safety and emergency preparedness: “Review of CSIS’s Use of [censored] - a Geolocation Data Collection Tool.”
