It’s time to take the annual terrorist threat report out of Public Safety

So if Public Safety is not the best office to produce this unique report, then who is? Not surprisingly, I would suggest that CSIS should do it since that is the premier organization that knows what is happening in Canada.

Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale, pictured May 7, 2019, at the National Press Theatre in Ottawa. His department is the wrong shop to pen one of the few pieces of information on terrorism in our country that the average Canadian can read, argues Phil Gurski.
