The intelligence did not come solely from Canada. Some was provided by an unnamed ally in the Five Eyes intelligence alliance.

That's the big point in this story for me. When you have another of the five eyes (Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the UK and USA) corroborating the information it makes it all the more damning.

In addition to restrictions on sharing intelligence from Five Eyes allies beyond the group, let alone publicly, there are also issues with the admissibility of evidence in courts that is gathered under intelligence legal exceptions.

Ensuring that the judicial court process isnโ€™t marred by inappropriate release of intelligence would seem to be a significant challenge in this case.
