The Civitas Institute is affiliated with the SSPX (Society of St. Pius X), so yes indeed they are traditional Catholics.

On a related note, I have heard that, in France, more people attend SSPX Masses than all other Masses. Does anyone have links to the stats about that or know them off the top of their head?

I have heard that there are more French Catholics attending the Traditional Latin Mass than the New (post-Vatican II) Mass. The SSPX is the largest traditionalist group in France, but there are others such as the FSSP (Fraternal Society of St. Peter). The SSPX has good relations with Pope Benedict but is at odds with many of the liberal French bishops.
