Top Secret Document Released By CBC News

There has been a lot of interest lately into the way countries obtain information about each other.

CBC News recently reported that it has a document showing that Canada has spied on its trading partners.

“Spied” (spying) in this case means obtained information about another country which that country may not otherwise have been willing to openly share.

The CBC said Canada was conducting “espionage” (spying) because it was asked to by a department of the United States.

The document the CBC is referring to is a four-page document that outlines the spying activities.

The CBC said someone “leaked” it to them, meaning that someone sent it out when it was supposed to be secret.

The document was marked “Top Secret.”
