That definition is outlined in the Emergencies Act as flowing directly from section 2 of the CSIS Act, which states that a threat to the security of Canada requires the threat or use of acts of serious violence against persons or property for the purpose of achieving political, religious or ideological objectives.
Vigneault, who was re-appointed as CSIS director last June, said that his advice was provided as “national security adviser, as opposed to the director of CSIS”. CSIS’ analysis of ideologically-motivated violent extremism has three criteria that moves individuals and/or organizations from actors to targets: a willingness to kill or to inspire others to kill; a desire to attempt societal change; and, an ideological influence.
Yet, as national security adviser Jody Thomas testified last Friday, the government had decided to use a broader definition of a threat to national security than the one laid down explicitly in the Emergencies Act.
