You think CSIS leadership is deliberately timing their briefings of MPs to make the government look bad (even though, as the story I linked clearly states, they contacted Kwan 3 weeks ago)? OK...

Yeah, that's much more plausible than the government changing CSIS policy in response to the leaks so that the threshold for notifying MPs is significantly lower.
