So, the common beliefs are that CSIS cannot justify its existence since there is no evidence of "International (i.e., stateless) Islamic Terrorists" standing around on street corners.  However, there's no question that trans-national organized crime trafficking tunnels abound [spin-Down: 3 + (4 + 1)].  You can say that they're "hate" crimes that are visible involving guns, gangs, and drugs.  But some are directly linked to jihadist cells [3 + (4 + 3)].  These are the most pernicious kinds of organized crime networks.  

The difference is that the essential trait of the common variety of organized crime trafficking (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8) is primarily financial, for projects such as property development.  On the other hand, the essential property of the generic International Islamic Terrorism is hate (e.g., extortion, kidnapping, suicide bombs, hand-held bombs and arms (spin-Up: 7 + 9 + 11).

Thus, the need for CSIS to collect data-sources, and they have stated that they abide by the rules.
