If you are new to these pages, please read an introduction on the structure of a cable as well as how to discuss them with others. See also the FAQs.

Understanding cables

Every cable message consists of three parts:

  • The top box shows each cables unique reference number, when and by whom it originally was sent, and what its initial classification was.
  • The middle box contains the header information that is associated with the cable. It includes information about the receiver(s) as well as a general subject.
  • The bottom box presents the body of the cable. The opening can contain a more specific subject, references to other cables (browse by origin to find them) or additional comment. This is followed by the main contents of the cable: a summary, a collection of specific topics and a comment section.

To understand the justification used for the classification of each cable, please use this WikiSource article as reference.

Discussing cables

If you find meaningful or important information in a cable, please link directly to its unique reference number. Linking to a specific paragraph in the body of a cable is also possible by copying the appropriate link (to be found at the paragraph symbol).
Please mark messages for social networking services like Twitter with the hash tags #cablegate and a hash containing the reference ID e.g. #[Reference ID].

  • #05TORONTO2778 #cablegate AMBASSADOR BRIDGE OWNERS UNVEIL BIG PLANS FOR DETROIT 05TORONTO2778

  • Posted on by @sovereignty4all

  • On October 20 the Detroit Free Press reported that the Ambassador Bridge owners have proposed giving the City of Detroit $30 million to &extend the lease8 on the Detroit Windsor Tunnel and buy some land at the foot of the bridge. Ambassador Bridge owners say they plan to construct a 200-acre super inspection plaza for U.S. and Canadian border enforcement officials. This article was published one day after the latest meeting of the Detroit River International Crossing (DRIC) Study, evaluating possible sites for a new border crossing. Although the Ambassador Bridge owners are publicly stating that there is no need to construct a new crossing between Detroit and Windsor, they appear to be quietly moving behind the scenes toward construction of a second privately-held bridge span.

    Although the Ambassador Bridge owners are publicly stating that there is no need to construct a new crossing between Detroit and Windsor, they appear to be quietly moving behind the scenes toward construction of a second privately-held bridge span. Today,s article in the Detroit Free Press shows the funds the Ambassador Bridge owners are willing to expend to protect their revenue stream (estimated at $1 billion per year by the Detroit Free Press) and gain political support for their plans on the Detroit side of the river. Opening a new span on the Ambassador Bridge site could bring some benefits to the Detroit side of the river where a highway construction project will soon provide the needed road infrastructure to smoothly funnel additional cross-border traffic onto I-75. But adding a bridge span in downtown Windsor would present a difficult challenge for officials on the Canadian side of the river.

  • #07OTTAWA2058 #cablegate THE U.S. – CANADA BORDER IN 2007: GROUND TRUTH AND POLICY IMPLICATIONS (PART III OF III…) 07OTTAWA2058

  • Posted on by @sovereignty4all

  • As part of a year-long effort to “map the border,” Mission Canada officers visited the frontier to observe ground truth in how the border functions and how to make it work better. Part I of this three-part series reviewed conclusions and recommendations, Part II covered ports of entry, trade, and the environment. This third part reviews immigration models, First Nations issues, WHTI, and law enforcement.

    The post-9/11 move to enhance security on the border has led to a number of new initiatives to eliminate gaps in border geography, enhance information sharing, and better coordinate law enforcement operations. Mission Canada reinvigorated several fora to better coordinate cross border crime and counter-terrorism policy – principally the Cross Border Crime Forum and the Bilateral Consultative Group on Counter-Terrorism. The U.S. and Canada conducted the first trial “Shiprider” program to move towards cooperative marine policing of the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence Seaway, which we hope will see law enforcement officers of both nations assigned to the other’s border patrol boats. Our two countries initiated the Integrated Border Enforcement Team (IBET) program, in which officers from the U.S. and Canada share office space at 15 locations on both sides of the border in order to better share information and coordinate local law enforcement activities. And the U.S. and Canada have conducted national and local exercises to test our systems for responding to cross-border incidents.

  • #09OTTAWA434, #cablegate SUCCESSFUL VISIT TO CANADA BY DHS SECRETARY NAPOLITANO

  • Posted on by @sovereignty4all

  • Minister Kenney expressed his strong desire to enhance information sharing between Canada and the United States, and emphasized that his government is ready to explore legislative changes to make greater information sharing possible. CIC has asked
    that DHS alert CIC when ICE is preparing significantly to ramp-up interior immigration enforcement actions, as U.S. enforcement activities impact Canada’s refugee claimant numbers. The Secretary asked in return that CIC alert DHS to any anticipated changes in immigration policies related to Haiti. Minister Kenney asked to meet with the Secretary on an annual basis to further the relationship and ensure coordination and communication on immigration and visa policy issues, which she agreed would be useful.
    The Secretary and Minister Van Loan, in a public event on May 26 at the Detroit/Windsor border crossing, signed the long-awaited “Shiprider” agreement, which will enable integrated maritime law enforcement operations to deal with cross-border crime. They also announced an agreement on a framework for the movement of people and goods across the U.S. Canada border during and following an emergency.

  • #10OTTAWA49 #cablegate Transforming the Canadian Forces: The Spirit is Willing… 10OTTAWA49

  • Posted on by @sovereignty4all

  • PM Harper has set an assertive course for Canadian
    foreign policy, declaring that “”Canada is back”” on the world scene.
    However, his ambitions for Canada may exceed his grasp, however, as
    changes in demography, economic constraints, difficulties in
    procurement, and competing priorities combine to limit his
    government’s ability to achieve this sweeping military
    transformation. The effect is likely to be that military resources
    will be redirected, defending “”sovereignty”” in the Arctic and
    other Canadian interests, at the expense of future post-Afghanistan
    expeditionary missions. Senior Canadian military officials as well
    as media pundits have already begun to express concern at a likely
    loss of Canada’s influence with the U.S. and NATO after the end of
    Canada’s Afghanistan mission, but so far this concern does not
    appear to be on the Prime Minister’s or the Conservative Party’s
    radar scope.
