2020 Live #19: Combating foreign interference

October 04, 2019


Last month Canada 2020 held a free public event to discuss the challenges facing Canadians in the 2019 federal election. In this episode, you’ll hear a panel discussion from that event covering the issue of foreign interference. Panelists answer questions about what foreign interference looks like, the threat it poses to Canada, and how it's best prevented. Panelists include Richard Fadden, former National Security Advisor to the Prime Minister of Canada, former Deputy Minister of National Defence and former Director of CSIS, and Fen Hampson, Director of Global Security Research at the Centre for International Governance Innovation and Co-Director of the Global Commission on Internet Governance. Emma McIntosh, an investigative reporter with the National Observer, is the moderator.
