Security and Intelligence Service (Canada)

The Security and Intelligence Service (French: Service du sécurité et de renseignement), colloquially known as the Service (la service), is the premier national security and intelligence service of the Canadian Republic. It is directly responsible to a Cabinet minister of the Prime Minister of Canada.

While primarily responsible for foreign intelligence and domestic counterintelligence and homeland security, agents of the Service are officially known as "officers", and the agency has full power to enforce the law at the federal level.
