  • Code and Country Ep. 7: Richard Fadden, former CSIS Director
    Mar 11 2025

    Canada’s next election is already under attack—and most voters don’t even know it

    Foreign adversaries are not waiting for ballots to be cast before interfering in Canada’s 2025 federal election. The fight isn’t happening at polling stations—it’s happening online, in misinformation campaigns, and through AI-driven influence operations.

    In this episode of Code and Country, former CSIS Director Richard Fadden exposes how foreign actors, including China, are manipulating public perception long before election day. Disinformation is more than a nuisance—it’s a weapon. Deepfakes, AI-generated propaganda, and cyber warfare tactics are being deployed to destabilize democracy right now.

    The warning signs are clear. The question is: Will Canada take action before it’s too late?

    This episode is essential listening for anyone who cares about the integrity of our democracy. Listen now, subscribe, and stay informed.

    The fight for truth starts here.
