You want to know how many ways Canada is a National Security threat to America? How high can you count?

This guy was caught thanks to the FBI. Our former Commissioner has been accused of protecting this spy for Russia. He denies doing so. What we do know is that there were multiple complaints against him, and nobody listened. Again, it took the FBI to advise Canada, then the RCMP decided to do their job.

How many Russian and Chinse paid spies do currently we have at the highest ranks with access to sensitive U.S and allied intelligence? Does this make you feel comfortable with our "system"? How much do you think other police forces are engaged in corruption and leaking of sensitive information that is vital to U.S security?

THIS is Canada. The side you will rarely if ever hear about in the MSM in the U.S. When nations are run via central control without accountability or scrutiny you will get problems that will hurt it's allies.

The RCMP has flagged ways to tighten its security protocols in response to the Cameron Ortis espionage case — but not one of those changes has been implemented in the year since his arrest.

Ortis, who is still awaiting trial, served as director general of the RCMP's national intelligence co-ordination centre. He was arrested on Sept. 12, 2019 and charged with preparing to share sensitive information with a foreign entity or terrorist organization. He's also charged with sharing operational information back in 2015.

In the immediate aftermath of his arrest, RCMP Commissioner Brenda Lucki launched an internal security review.


"This mandate required a review of various security areas, including not only the Ortis incident but also more broadly the overall security practices of the RCMP," said Cpl. Caroline Duval in an email.

The final report coming out of that review is now complete. It made a number of recommendations but it hasn't yet been presented to the force's senior executive committee.

Duval said that will be done over the "coming weeks."

"A management action plan is also under development to prioritize the various recommendations," she wrote.

Jessica Davis is a former senior intelligence analyst with the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) who now heads Insight Threat Intelligence. She said it's surprising the force hasn't acted on the findings yet.

"A year is a very long time," she said.

"If the RCMP is publicly saying that they haven't done anything or haven't implemented any of the changes that maybe need to happen in terms of increasing the security posture, what are they telling allies? Because they're obviously still receiving intelligence from the allies. So is the messaging the same to them? And if so, how are they taking that?"

What seems fair? You get Maple Syrup and in exchange foreign spies and criminals get access to high rank intel?

This is serious business. TPS, OPP and RCMP are not allies to Canadians, they certainly won't be to foreign nations either, even if it means a few of your secrets are spilled.
