Quelle Sécurité? Notre Sécurité!

A popular forum on national security took place in Montreal from 4 to 6 February 2011. Panels and action workshops brought together speakers and community groups to discuss and coordinate action on five themes including CSIS, immigration "security" measures (such as security certificates), the militaro-security industrial complex and blacklists.
