"CONTEXT:
SECRET (CEO) RELEASED UNDER THE ATIA- UNCLASSIFIED INFORMATION
"In Canadian parlance, the term "national security" has traditionally been used to denote domestic security concerns (e.g. domestic terrorism, emergency preparedness, etc.), as distinct from national defence. To some degree, this distinction has informed the organizational boundaries of Public Safety and other domestically-oriented security agencies, as well as the Department of National Defence and the Canadian Armed Forces (DND/CAF).
That said, there is no official Government of Canada definition of the term national security, nor is there a statutory definition of the national defence mandate. Broadly speaking, this has afforded the government with a critical degree of operational flexibility, and over time, government decisions and operational experiences have led to a better understanding of the Defence role in national security."
