Human rights issues in national security : an inventory of agency considerations / by Cara Wilkie ... [et al.].: HR4-32/2008E-PDF
"Since September 11, 2001, the security-consciousness of governments and citizens has intensified and national security institutions have been given increased powers. Critics have highlighted the potential of rights-infringements in this climate of security awareness. The Canadian Human Rights Commission commissioned this research to examine the extent to which national security agencies and their monitoring entities are directed to consider human rights issues in fulfilling their obligations, have publicly stated that they have considered such issues, or have reported on human rights issues in their activities."--Executive Summary.
