#1 That's because until just a year or two ago canada thought they didn't need one. They thought if they laid low, they wouldn't get hit. Now they know better.

Besides, if it was a secret spy agency, would we know about it?

#4 CSIS does all of our spying, both foreign and domestic. Even the RCMP has liason officers in embassies overseas, although I don't think they do any spying per se. We just don't have the MI5/6 or FBI/CIA seperations. Considering the turf battles we see going on in the US, I'd call it a feature, not a bug.
