Spies Like Us Season 3 Episode 23 – Mark our words: China is a big threat to Canada!
After a short hiatus the Al-less boys – does this make us a duet – are back and it’s all about China. Neil and Phil talk with Canada’s top Sinologist (that means China watcher for you non-China watchers) Charles Burton about why exactly the Canadian government under Prime Minister Mark Carney is kowtowing (how’s that for a Chinese term??) to the PRC and ignoring the obvious national security threats despite what the security services are saying to the country. A sneak peak at an upcoming Pillar Society Speakers’ Series talk in late May!

Spies Like Us
With a combined 90+ years of experience in the Canadian intelligence community across many agencies (CSIS, CSE, CBSA, etc.), Neil ‘the cherub’ Bisson, Phil the ‘Wall’ Gurski and Al ‘the grizzly bear’ Treddenick weigh in on current intelligence and international security issues all with a sharp tongue and a well-needed injection of humour. You will learn something and have fun doing it! Imagine three retired spies in a bar shooting the breeze and go from there…
