SUMMARY:Enemies of the State: How spying on Indigenous activists became a priority at the Canadian Security Intelligence Service
DESCRIPTION:The Institute of Criminology and Criminal Justice (ICCJ) kindly invites you to attend the ICCJ Winter 2026 colloquium\, “Enemies of the State: How spying on Indigenous activists became a priority at the Canadian Security Intelligence Service”. This event is a joint presentation and conversation between  Brett Forester and renowned Indigenous activist\, author\, and filmmaker Ellen Gabriel. \nEvent date and time: Monday\, April 13\, 2026 from 4:30 pm to 6:00 pm\nEvent location: RC 4400\, SJC Resource Centre\, Richcraft Hall \nEvent Description: \nHow much time and effort has Canada spent spying on Indigenous activists?  In 2022\, Brett Forester of CBC Indigenous in Ottawa set out to answer that question. It proved easy enough to ask but nearly impossible to answer. It took three years\, four formal access to information requests\, one informal request\, three complaints to the federal information commissioner and one court challenge\, but after all this wrangling we can begin to confirm the long-suspected truth: Snooping on Indigenous peoples has been a priority for the Canadian Security Intelligence Service almost since its inception. \nAfter reviewing more than 1\,000 pages of declassified documents\, Forester found surveillance that began in Labrador in 1988 with Cold War paranoia about Soviet meddling had by 1998 evolved into a national counterterrorism project monitoring Indigenous dissent as a form of domestic extremism. In this talk\, Forester will explain why and how this came to be\, as he offers a behind-the-scenes look at his investigation into more than a decade of CSIS’s self-styled “Native extremism” operations. This event is a joint presentation and conversation between Brett Forester and renowned Indigenous activist\, author\, and filmmaker Ellen Gabriel. \nThis event is co-sponsored with Law and Legal Students\, NPSIA\, Journalism and Communications\, and Indigenous Studies. \nSpace will be limited for this event. Please register using the form on the event page\, linked below. \nEnemies of the State: How spying on Indigenous activists became a priority at the Canadian Security Intelligence Service – Institute of Criminology and Criminal Justice \n

SUMMARY:Bubble By-law Public Delegation Workshop
DESCRIPTION:On April 17\, the “bubble” bylaw will be voted on by the Joint Emergency Preparedness and Protective Services and Public Works and Infrastructure Committee\, and we need to make sure councillors fully understand all of the consequences before making their decisions. \nAny form of a bubble bylaw will have a chilling effect on dissent\, and there is nowhere near enough evidence of protests causing real harm to justify cracking down on freedom of expression and freedom of assembly. \nOttawa’s proposal was only made public recently\, but we’ll bring you our analysis at the training session on Monday evening. RSVP today and you’ll receive a Zoom link and further instructions on delegating.
