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 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. ■
