Who is actually protecting Canada, and are they being listened to Canada's national security apparatus and why jihadi terrorism is still a major global threat 25 years after 9/11. Phil Gurski explains how CSIS, the RCMP, CSE and CBSA fit together, why CSIS collects intelligence instead of evidence, and what that means when a threat has to be handed off to police. They also dig into why Canada is the only major Western power without a standalone foreign human-intelligence service, how politics shapes security decisions, and whether Canada keeps waiting for a crisis before taking security seriously.
