NEW POWERS

Canada's spy service would become an agency that actively tries to derail terror plots at home and abroad – not just one that collects intelligence and hands it off to the RCMP.

NEW OFFENCES

The bill would give authorities the power to order the removal of "terrorist propaganda" from websites. It would also create a new criminal offence of encouraging someone to carry out a terrorist attack.

LOWER THRESHOLDS

Authorities could apply to a court if they believe terrorist activity "may be carried out." The previous threshold called on authorities to state they believed an act "will be carried out."

LONGER DETENTION

The bill extends the length of time authorities can detain suspected terrorists for up to seven days from three and expands the no-fly regime to cover those travelling by air to take part in terrorist activities.

INFORMATION SHARING

The bill grants government departments explicit authority to share private information, including passport applications or confidential commercial data, with law-enforcement agencies.
