This is false. Notably, it was soldiers from Canada and Denmark - two of of Trump’s favorite targets - who did hard, frontline combat duty and paid for it in blood with some of the highest per-capita casualty rates of the war.
“Canada doesn’t live because of the United States,” says @MarkJCarney in response to U.S. President @realDonaldTrump’s remarks in Davos. “Canada thrives because we are Canadian. Nous sommes maîtres chez nous.” #cdnpoli

I don’t know what Mark’s job description was. To those of us who relied on him he was a wizard. He always answered our calls for help,always had our backs. I told him many times, including the night before he died, that I never wanted to go on the road without him. RIP my friend

Based on the information in this article, the take-aways are:
-CSIS did its job & warned parliamentarians
-there is no indication of inappropriate surveillance
