"CSIS spy networks in mosques not meant to target Islam, experts say"

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "TORONTO -- The Canadian Security Intelligence Service practice of paying informants to gather intelligence from specific religious communities in Canada is a perfectly acceptable tactic that has been misunderstood and misrepresented, security experts say.

Places of worship are only investigated if suspicious individuals are known to frequent them, former employees of the spy agency and the RCMP said Monday in response to media reports that said CSIS has infiltrated virtually every mosque in Toronto.

“It’s absolutely, absolutely untrue that there’s a spy in every mosque,” said Chris Mathers, a crime and risk consultant and former RCMP officer.

“The RCMP and CSIS do not . . .target religious groups, they target individuals, because it’s against the law.”

CSIS will only infiltrate particular locations if they seem to be likely breeding grounds for extremist activity, Mathers said.

If a person was under suspicion and attended a specific place of worship, measures would be taken to investigate the goings-on within that building as well as any other places the suspect spent considerable time, he added."
