Foreign interference. Money laundering. Undue influence by powerful insiders. These are just some of the hidden threats facing Canada’s democracy. It’s time to unmask these forces – subjecting them to hard scrutiny before they can further erode our democratic institutions.
Join MLI for a timely discussion with senior experts on the policy choices Canada must make to address its growing vulnerabilities. Our panel – including a former solicitor general, veteran investigators, and a senior fellow with national security experience – will reveal how illicit networks, substate capture, and abuse of public office undermine Canadian democracy. In addition, participants will consider concrete policy and institutional reforms that Canada needs to confront these risks. Based on fresh investigations and new insights, this event exposes threats too often overlooked.
