Canadian Security Intelligence Service: Canada

Amnesty International Canada Dept: Public Safety Minister Vic Toews outlines instructions for sharing information in such cases in a four-page directive to Canadian Security Intelligence Service director Dick Fadden, according to The Star. The directive is squarely at odds with Canada s international commitments against torture which have no loopholes, said Alex Neve, secretary general of Amnesty International Canada and oTTAWA The federal government has given Canada s spy service the go-ahead to provide information to foreign agencies even when there is a substantial risk it will lead to torture, a newly released document shows. A copy of the July 2011 document secret until now was released to The Canadian Press under the Access to Information Act. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
