   Police strategy - or encouraging a criminal act to entrap?   
      
   This will affect CSIS, the RCMP and every other police force in the country.

   B.C. judge rules against secret hearings for CSIS in terror probe   
      
   VANCOUVER --   
      
   Canada's spy agency has lost a bid to hold a secret hearing over its   
   involvement in an investigation involving a couple who were later found guilty   
   on terror charges in British Columbia.   
      
   B.C. Supreme Court Justice Catherine Bruce has ruled the media and the public   
   will be allowed to attend the hearing that is considering if the RCMP   
   manipulated the couple into carrying out the bomb plot.   
      
   John Nuttall and Amanda Korody were found guilty for plotting to blow up the   
   B.C. legislature on Canada Day 2013, but the convictions have been put on hold   
   while their lawyers argue the pair was entrapped by police in an undercover   
   sting.   
      
   The Canadian Security Intelligence Service had asked the judge to allow a   
   hearing to be held in camera, arguing that some of the information is so   
   sensitive to national security that only lawyers for the service and the judge   
   should hear it.   
      
   The judge says that although the court will be open, the doors could be   
   shuttered at any time if sensitive information comes up.   
      
   Bruce says if that happens, the lawyers must put their legal arguments into   
   writing so they can be made available to the public, while the sensitive facts   
   will be heard in oral arguments behind closed doors.
