Oh dear. This is referring to the Food Safety Network. That is who I tracked back the NAIS research to when I first stumpled upon the Healthy People 2010.
NOW I'm really getting worried.

Defence Against Help: Canada and Transnational Security after 9/11
Excerpt:
This paper examines the series of policy moves made by Canada to make its homeland secure enough for the United States to remain open to economic flows across the 49th parallel after 9/11. Rather than being in direct response to the new terrorist threat, these policy moves were made in response to Washingtons will. If Ottawa failed to deliver the types of policy changes and innovations expected by Washington, either North American commercial flows would have ground to a halt, or Washington would have helped to make Canada more secure. The former outcome would have crippled Canada economically, the latter politically by doing damage to the integrity of the countrys sovereignty. The logic underpinning Canadas response to 9/11 was therefore the same as that which Nils Ørvik saw as underpinning Canadian defence policy throughout the Cold War. The Canadian response to 9/11 was more of a defence against help from the United States, than a defence against Islamic terrorism.
