In the News E9 Foreign Influence in Canada
In this episode we dive into a complex and timely issue: foreign influence on Canada. There's growing concern about the influence of foreign powers over Canada, particularly in recent elections.
The leveraging of hybrid warfare which combines traditional military means with cyberattacks, disinformation campaigns, and social media manipulation, are a major concern.
Canada, with its open society and democratic values, might be particularly vulnerable to such tactics. We'll discuss how foreign actors are exploiting these vulnerabilities to sow discord, undermine trust in institutions, and potentially influence our elections.
Join us with special guest Alan Treddenick, a former CSIS Director and leading expert on national security and foreign influence. Join us for an insightful conversation on how Canada can safeguard its democracy in the face of evolving threats.
