Canada to increase spying and data collection

Canada is taking more steps to spy:

OTTAWA—

The Canadian government intends to boost the powers of its spy agency, CSIS, to investigate terrorist threats outside the country and to protect spy informants, Public Safety Minister Stephen Blaney said on Thursday.

“The events in recent months in Iraq and Syria have shown us that we cannot become complacent in the face of terrorism,” Blaney told a news conference after informing his provincial counterparts of his legislative plans.

“Now more than ever, a motivated individual or a group of extremists with access to technology can do significant harm to Canada from thousands of miles away,” he said.

The government was particularly committed to addressing the threat of homegrown residents who become radicalized, and what he called the growing problem of extremist travelers.

The legislation will allow CSIS, the Canadian Security Intelligence Service, to track and investigate potential terrorists when they travel abroad and ultimately lead to their prosecution, according to Blaney.

He said that as of early 2014, the government was aware of 130 individuals with Canadian connections abroad who were suspected of terrorism-related activities. He has said 80 had returned home and police were investigating them.

The new bill also would ensure CSIS can protect the identity of its sources, he said.

A statement from the minister did not elaborate on the powers sought. http://www.voanews.com/content/reu-canada-set-boost-spy-agency-powers-terror-threats/2486193.html

Although I like Canada, it disturbs me when it decides to imitate the USA in certain matters, and this seems to be another of concern. Terrorist threats from the Middle East were the same reason that the USA gave for increased espionage 13 years ago.

Citizens of Canada and the USA are not truly free and are spied upon all the time by their governments. And both governments seem to want to be able to spy more.

Because of its espionage, the USA and UK have helped push Germany to get to the point that it eventually will start WWIII (see also World War III: Steps in Progress). While some of the moves may make carnal sense, Canada seems to be following suit.

Will USA Spying Help the Beast Power? Various allegations have surfaced about the United States government spying on its own citizens as well as its supposed allies in the European Union. Whether or not all the espionage allegations are true, and the main ones have not been publicly denied by the government of the USA, the reality is that this does have prophetic ramifications and will help the Beast of Revelation. This video provides quotes from the Bible showing how this is so. The USA is placing itself in a position to be taken over and its response to the allegations will make it easier for the Europeans to do so.
