Public Hearing Audience publique - Commissioner / Commissaire The Honourable / L’honorable

7 Dec 2022

GORDON CAMERON: The way we’ve found it 17 convenient to describe it to those who aren’t familiar with the 18 bureaucracy of the Service is to describe you as the most senior 19 intelligence officer in the Service; is that a fair description? 20 MS. [...] 9 VIGNEAULT / TESSIER / CHAYER In-Ch(Cameron) 1 material, I will ask to sit down with the Executive Director of 2 ITAC to formally question some elements, to make sure that I 3 understand exactly what's the basis of the analysis and make 4 sure that I'm comfortable with such analysis, and then I'm the 5 position to make the determination of the threat level. [...] But it's -- when we say 2(c), we actually 14 mean the threat -- the definition of threat to the security of 15 Canada, that is, the third of the subcategories of threats to 16 the security of Canada; correct? 17 MS. [...] GORDON CAMERON: And is it fair to say that 19 for the purposes we are talking about in relation to the convoy, 20 the blockades, the protests in January and February of this 21 year, that certainly the concentration, and ultimately, I think, 22 the exclusive area of interest for potential threats or for 23 investigation of threats would be 2(c). [...] And so can you 24 tell the Commissioner, relatively speaking, of the -- all of the 25 resources of the service that are devoted to counter terrorism 26 operations, what proportion of those resources are devoted to 27 dealing with the IMVE threat? 28 MS.
