Welcome to Diplomatic Dispatch, a new podcast series by Radio Canada International.
My goal is to bring you insights into Canada’s foreign, defence and development policy.
I’ll discuss Canada’s global role through interviews with policy makers, former and serving diplomats and soldiers, academics and think tank experts, humanitarian workers, civil society activists and entrepreneurs.
What is Canada’s foreign policy? How should Canada conduct its foreign policy? Who should conduct that policy? Should that policy change? And if yes, how? Who are Canada’s allies and who are its foes? And what do we do with them?
These are all questions that I’m hoping to ask and try to answer in this podcast series.

Diplomatic Dispatch – Episode 2: The national security view
Does Canada need its own foreign intelligence service?
The world is undergoing fundamental change and Canada cannot rest on its laurels at a time of rising global threats, including the increasingly isolationist United States, dysfunctional Western allies and the emergence of China and Russia, cyber threats and terrorism, says Richard Fadden, former national security adviser to both Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his predecessor, Stephen Harper.
I spoke with him at the Summit on Canada’s Global Leadership in Ottawa at the end of November in 2019. The event was organized by the Canadian Council for International Cooperation (CCIC), the Canadian Association for the Study of International Development (CASID), the Canadian Partnership for Women and Children’s Health (CanWaCH) and the Canadian Global Affairs Institute (CGAI).
