On July 25, 2025, the Attorney General of Canada delivered a letter stating that a “Michael” will be attending the upcoming discovery session in August. He is a CSIS Officer working in the Litigation and Disclosure branch. He previously worked as a covert agent in HUMINT operations. This is a major milestone in the case, CV-20-00645492-0000, taking nearly five years to finally arrive at.
The letter asserts that “Michael” will confirm that CSIS had no knowledge of Equibit Group, its founders, employees, or business activities. They attempt to put on a confident face, but around this exact same time a hacker begins an all-out digital assault on Chris, whose incredibly illegal attacks (some carrying a life sentence in the Criminal Code) were logged and analyzed by Chris and several IT professionals. At the same time the same hacker also attempted an illegal hostile takeover of Equibit Group, with the stated intent of terminating the lawsuits.
This tactic by the Attorney General was altogether a complete failure. Not only did the CSIS Officer demonstrate the Attorney General perjured themselves in their Statement of Defense during examination, but Chris’s investigative techniques were finally able to put a positive ID on the CSIS Officer who had originally orchestrated the downfall of Equibit Group.
The 25 July 2025 Letter
Below is a copy of the letter received from the Attorney General.
Why Discovery Matters in This File
Since the Statement of Claim was served in August 2020, the government has employed various procedural tactics that substantially delayed the progress of the case. The Court’s decision to force CSIS into the discovery phase is therefore a hard-won victory for transparency and accountability.
Discovery is one of the most important stages in civil litigation. It is where parties are required to disclose relevant documents and where witnesses can be examined under oath. This milestone means the Plaintiffs will now have the opportunity to test the government’s position with concrete evidence and compel production of records that have long been sought.
Delay Before Examination
This development fits the larger pattern documented throughout this site: prolonged institutional resistance, procedural delays, and repeated obstacles placed in the path of accountability. The fact that it required years of persistent effort simply to reach the discovery stage raises serious questions about whether powerful state actors are being held to the same standards as ordinary citizens.
For any Canadian who still wants to believe in procedural fairness and the rule of law, these timelines are troubling. Basic steps in the justice process should not require extraordinary persistence when the defendant is the Government of Canada.
The Public Record After Discovery
The public documentation campaign at equibitlawsuit.com exists to ensure these milestones remain transparent and accessible to all. Every court order, every filing, and every piece of evidence obtained through discovery will be preserved and added to the permanent record.
The full Factum of Equibit Group — the comprehensive evidentiary synthesis of the entire case — continues to advance and will be released in due course.
