Military Personnel

Civil - Military Relations

  • Peacekeeping? its an Age Thing - A CDSN survey exploring Canadians’ attitude on foreign and defence policy issues revealed that opinions on Canadian peacekeeping tend to vary by age. This may affect Canada’s future foreign policy stance and decisions. 

Nature-Triggered Emergency Response and Domestic Operations

Climate Security & NATO

Supply Chain Security

  • Dane Rowlands, Trey Zary & Ariane Paquet-Labelle: POLICY BRIEF # 1 Identifying Critical Trade Links for Canadians. Canada is heavily reliant on imported final and intermediate goods to meet the critical needs of its citizens. Canadian consumers rely on many imported products, while Canadian producers have expressed concerns about acquiring key inputs for their supply chains. Much of our current thinking on trade interruptions and critical products reflects our recent experience with the Covid-19 pandemic, but there are other potential threats arising from the weaponization of supply chains by foreign states. In this first policy brief in the global supply chains project for the Canadian Defence and Security Network, we outline the nature of the problem, our approach for analyzing the possible risks Canada faces, and identify directions for generating policy-relevant recommendations.

Teaching Defence and Security: Sharing Strategies, Tactics, and Tools

Description: This is a CDSN - CFC joint initiative to enable defence and security scholars to facilitate the sharing of experiences and of online tools. The idea is to have us meet to discuss strategies and tools (games, simulations, videos, audio materials, etc). Participants have identified the topics they are covering and have provided some of the tools they would like to have for their defence and security classes.  We have provided a list of links below from those who have such tools and are willing to share their experiences and offer suggestions for how to deploy such materials in the virtual classroom. 

TOOLS
