Abstract

The National Security and Intelligence Committee of Parliamentarians (NSICOP) has twice reviewed the intelligence activities of CAF/DND and recommended the government provide explicit legislative authority for those activities. In “Defence intelligence and the Crown prerogative in Canada,” Philippe Lagassé rebukes NSICOP's argument and defends the continued reliance on the Crown prerogative. This article proposes that the critiques raised by Lagassé minimize the importance of the legal and operational concerns raised by NSICOP and do not reflect the legal history of Canadian intelligence activities. It also introduces the argument that the DND/CAF may no longer rely on the Crown prerogative for signals intelligence.

危险的特权:加拿大国防情报立法的论据

国会议员国家安全和情报委员会(NSICOP)两次审查了CAF/DND的情报活动，并建议政府为这些活动提供明确的立法授权。在《加拿大的国防情报和王室特权》一书中，菲利普·拉加瑟尔(Philippe lagass)驳斥了NSICOP的观点，并为继续依赖王室特权辩护。这篇文章提出lagass提出的批评最小化了NSICOP提出的法律和操作问题的重要性，并没有反映加拿大情报活动的法律历史。它还介绍了DND/CAF在信号情报方面可能不再依赖王室特权的论点。
