  • September 2014: The agency participates in a massive surveillance and monitoring operation coordinated between several state departments and stakeholders. The agency coordinates with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and local security forces to monitor hot spots.[2]
  • February 2015: Under proposed changes in 2015, the Canadian Security Intelligence Service would transition from data collection to having police-like powers. The agency would be granted the ability to act on suspicion to investigate or deny passports without requiring proof.[3]
  • June 2015: Under proposed legislation, the agency would be able to appear before a judge in secret hearings to facilitate arrests. The agency is granted expanded powers that critics claim lack adequate independent oversight.[1]
