In this episode of Code and Country, former CSIS and CBSA intelligence expert Neil Bisson explores the rising threats facing Canada and its allies. Cyber attacks, geopolitical tension, and cross-border crime are converging to reshape Canada’s security landscape.

Cyber and physical threats are no longer separate. Nation-state actors and cybercriminals are launching digital attacks that disrupt infrastructure, communications, and even elections. Intelligence sharing is also shifting as the United States adjusts its global strategy. Canada and its Five Eyes partners are being forced to rethink how they collaborate and respond.

At the border, Canada is dealing with a surge in illegal firearms entering from the south, while fentanyl remains a major concern. Economic pressure, disinformation, and trade tactics are quietly influencing Canadian sovereignty in ways many have not yet recognized.

AI-generated propaganda and deepfakes are already working to manipulate public opinion. This is a critical moment for Canada. Tune in to hear Neil Bisson’s expert perspective on what comes next. ■
