(LifeSiteNews) — The Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) wants to make it crystal clear: they are all in on the LGBT agenda.
CSIS is Canada’s spy agency—the foreign intelligence service responsible for protecting the nation from threats both foreign and domestic—published a series of posts on August 18 letting everyone know that they are hard at work. Promoting “Pride Season,” that is.
In Canada, we don’t just have “Pride Month,” like other LGBT-colonized countries. We have “Pride Season,” which according to the federal government includes June, July, August, and September.
“Back in June, CSIS launched its #PrideSeason celebrations with a few guest speakers,” CSIS Canada wrote on X. “Thanks to the talented Two-spirit hoop dancer Makhena Ranken Guerin, the hilarious Canadian comedienne Ava Val, and inspirational public servant David Da Silva for visiting, performing and speaking at CSIS NHQ!”
CSIS added: “Visit @PSPrideNetwork for details on how to continue celebrating #PSPW2025 with activities throughout this week: Public Service Pride Week,” with the hashtags “#2SLGBTQIA” and “#safespacesmatter.” This was one of several posts on their commitment to the LGBT agenda since June.
One might justifiably ask: Does this matter? Isn’t this just another example of how the Canadian state has been captured by LGBT activists? Indeed, but when LGBT activists portray Canadian Christians and other dissidents from their ideology as hateful and evening genuinely threatening, the results are predictably dangerous.

Last year, for example, CSIS and Canada’s Integrated Terrorism Assessment Centre (ITAC) stated that the parental rights movement is a “violent threat” to the country and that supporters of “parental rights” and the “anti-gender movement” are, in their view, likely connected to neo-Nazi and white nationalist groups (despite many of these parental rights protesters being spearheaded by non-white Canadians).
This report, surprisingly, was obtained by the CBC through an Access to Information Request; in it, CSIS states that “trans and drag communities in Canada have been the target of several online threats and real-world intimidation tactics in recent months,” and that “Anti-2SLGBTQl+ narratives remain a common theme in violent rhetoric espoused by white nationalists, neo-Nazis, the Freedom Movement, and networks such as Diagolon and QAnon.”
CSIS spokesperson Eric Balsam affirmed the report, stating that CSIS “assesses that exposure to groups and individuals espousing anti-gender extremist rhetoric could inspire and encourage serious violence against the 2SLGBTQI+ community, or against those who are viewed as supporters of pro-gender ideology policies and events. CSIS assesses that the violent threat posed by the anti-gender movement is almost certain to continue over the coming year and that violent actors may be inspired by the University of Waterloo attack to carry out their own extreme violence against the 2SLGBTQI+ community or against other targets they view as representing the gender ideology ‘agenda.’”
It is worth noting Balsam’s scare quotes around gender ideology “agenda”—clearly, according to CSIS, there is no such thing—there is only an anti-gender ideology agenda.
It matters when institutions adopt an ideological bias. It especially matters when those institutions essentially adopt the worldview and rhetoric of activists who believe that the beliefs of traditional Canadian Christians constitute an active threat to the lives and wellbeing of LGBT-identifying people. And it certainly matters when parents who publicly object to the indoctrination and even transitioning of their children in state schools are dubbed a potential “violent threat” by Canada’s top spy agency.
When CSIS director David Vigneault led a group of intelligence officials in the Ottawa Pride Parade a few years back holding an LGBT flag, it may have seemed like no big deal. The reality, however, is that it indicated the potential weaponization of Canada’s security service against everyday Canadians who disagree with what that flag represents.
