CISC is dedicated to informing the public on current and emerging organized crime issues. An informed public is better able to understand the threat posed by organized crime activities and the harms they represent.  Organized crime does not operate within confined boundaries, but exists and conducts illicit business within urban centres as well as rural communities.  In some instances, these crime groups could not continue to function without the compliance of individuals within the legitimate economy. It is hoped that an informed public will continue to be a willing and active partner, working cooperatively with the law enforcement community to combat organized crime.

The CISC Annual Report offers Canadians an opportunity to become better informed and aware of how pervasive and insidious a threat organized crime poses to our country, to our province and to our communities.

CISC is the criminal intelligence organization that represents the entire Canadian law enforcement community. Consequently, it is in a unique position to enhance the level of coordination and intelligence sharing within this community to enable integrated intelligence-led policing. In addition, the ongoing sharing of intelligence facilitates CISC’s continued commitment to provide the public with a national law enforcement overview of organized crime. The CISC network will continue its coordinated efforts to assess organized crime in the context of the criminal marketplace in order to most effectively combat current and emerging organized crime threats.
