Minist\u00e8re de la D\u00e9fense nationale<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Objet<\/strong>: Avis concernant l\u2019examen de l\u2019OSSNR relatif \u00e0 la collaboration entre le Centre de la S\u00e9curit\u00e9 des t\u00e9l\u00e9communications (CST) et le minist\u00e8re de la D\u00e9fense nationale (MDN)\/les Forces arm\u00e9es canadiennes (FAC)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Monsieur le Ministre,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Je vous \u00e9cris au nom des membres de l\u2019Office de surveillance des activit\u00e9s en mati\u00e8re de s\u00e9curit\u00e9 nationale et de renseignement (OSSNR) pour vous informer que l\u2019OSSNR a entrepris un examen de la collaboration entre le Centre de la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 des t\u00e9l\u00e9communications (CST) et le minist\u00e8re de la D\u00e9fense nationale (MDN)\/les Forces arm\u00e9es canadiennes (FAC).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cet examen est r\u00e9alis\u00e9 en application de l\u2019alin\u00e9a 8(1)a) de la Loi sur l\u2019Office de surveillance des activit\u00e9s en mati\u00e8re de s\u00e9curit\u00e9 nationale et de renseignement<\/em> (Loi sur l\u2019OSSNR). La Loi sur l\u2019OSSNR accorde \u00e0 l\u2019Office de surveillance un acc\u00e8s complet et en temps voulu \u00e0 tous les renseignements d\u00e9tenus par les minist\u00e8res et organismes examin\u00e9s, y compris les renseignements classifi\u00e9s et de nature d\u00e9licate, \u00e0 l\u2019exception des documents confidentiels du Cabinet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

L\u2019OSSNR examinera un certain nombre d\u2019aspects de la collaboration entre le CST et le MDN\/FAC, et \u00e9valuera les activit\u00e9s concern\u00e9es sous l\u2019angle de la conformit\u00e9 aux autorisations applicables, notamment les lois et les instructions minist\u00e9rielles. L\u2019examen pourrait donner lieu \u00e0 une \u00e9valuation de la collaboration \u2013 y compris son cadre de gouvernance \u2013, mais aussi de certaines activit\u00e9s op\u00e9rationnelles, s\u2019il y a lieu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

L\u2019OSSNR prendra contact avec vos repr\u00e9sentants concernant ledit examen. Tout au long de la d\u00e9marche, l\u2019\u00e9quipe d\u2019examen de l\u2019OSSNR communiquera r\u00e9guli\u00e8rement avec eux pour leur demander des renseignements. Ces demandes peuvent concerner des documents, des acc\u00e8s aux syst\u00e8mes, des explications \u00e9crites, des s\u00e9ances d\u2019information, des entrevues, des sondages ou tout autre type de renseignement que l\u2019OSSNR juge pertinent pour cet examen. L\u2019examen pourrait \u00e9galement comprendre l\u2019inspection ind\u00e9pendante de certains syst\u00e8mes techniques. Dans le cadre du pr\u00e9sent examen, l\u2019OSSNR demandera \u00e0 recevoir une r\u00e9ponse aux recommandations formul\u00e9es dans le rapport. En outre, les attentes de l\u2019OSSNR en mati\u00e8re de r\u00e9activit\u00e9 ont \u00e9t\u00e9 mises en ligne \u00e0 l\u2019adresse suivante https:\/\/nsira-ossnr.gc.ca\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Je vous remercie par avance de votre coop\u00e9ration et de votre soutien au processus d\u2019examen ind\u00e9pendant, qui est essentiel \u00e0 la transparence et \u00e0 la responsabilit\u00e9 en d\u00e9mocratie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Je vous prie d\u2019agr\u00e9er, l\u2019expression de ma consid\u00e9ration respectueuse. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
