Choose your next witticism carefully
Former head of MI6, Sir Richard Dearlove (the spy formerly known as "C") says Canada needs its own foreign intelligence service. An excellent idea; if anyone in the know is recruiting down the line, do keep me in mind. I am available for training/consultancy in the finer points of baccarat and champagne-selection that are sure to come up.
Dearlove says Canada could make an important contribution to its own national security interests as well as its major allies. He points to Australia, saying its external spy service has achieved a high degree of sophistication and success, especially in the Asia-Pacific region. Dearlove says Canada’s CSIS has evolved into a world-class security service but lacks a clear-cut mandate to gather intelligence overseas.
On a related note: This hideously misconceived James Bond 007 TX Spy Gear Bundle from Sony. I see this one is missing its "needs to be glassed" sticker.
