Intrepid’s man in Canada, Thomas Geoffrey Drew-Brook. More than 75 years after the events of the Second World War we now have access to an oral interview describing Canada’s role in the secret war. Find out why Drew-Brook said, “it had to be Canada.”

The [Redacted] on Terrorism. What censors were deemed necessary when talking about Canada’s role in Afghanistan after September 11, 2001? How has that changed since 2011, and what does it mean for historians?

Shopping trips to Zellers, IMINT doodles, and deep undercover work. What were the Canadians doing in Cuba? When and how did Canadian officials find out about the Soviet missile sites that would lead to one of the tensest standoffs of the Cold War? All this, and more on Substack!

1955, “The Lobster Festival” was a Department of External Affairs/CBC-IS Cold War cooperative radio propaganda operation. Canadian “Kremlinologists” sought to leverage a perceived rift within the Soviet leadership concerning its relationship with communist China.

Oleg Gordievsky’s exfiltration from the USSR was a daring and dangerous endeavor. Codenamed OVATION during his debriefing in England, the former KGB officer provided incredibly detailed and top-secret information. What did Canada learn in the OVATION files, and what can we learn from them now?

Are you interested in researching Canadian involvement in the War on Terror? The Operation APOLLO files are an excellent research resource. They contain official and logistics documents, communications, and reports elaborating on the impacts of Canadian operations.

What did the British really think of Canada’s efforts during the Second World War? "Canada stood by us in the dark days..." or "a well-worn theme?"

In 1957, the US government requested baggage investigatory powers at Canadian rail stations, but why? The plan was to utilize a “Mark II” radioactive detection device to identify attempts to smuggle radioactive materials into the US, however, Canadian officials were less than enthusiastic.

If the nuclear apocalypse happened in the 60s what was the Canadian continuity of government plan? It started with a ride on the bus “RUSTIC”, only for specific personnel with valid, unbent, and laminated Government of Canada Identification. Exercise ARCADIA was a practice run, lunch not included.

An okay read but not Mansell's best. I liked the women characters, but the men were pretty poor, I have to admit - they seemed to have a nasty edge I didn't much warm to. In addition, Still, the writing is good, but I can't recommend this one. Sorry! #bookreview

Former CIA Director and 4-Star Gen Petraeus says drone war is accelerating: "Ukraine went from 3.5M drones last year to 7M this year. If it finds enough pilots, it can reach 20,000 drones a day. Next come truly autonomous systems & drone swarms - & the West does not really have a solution yet."

This is what’s actually happening with the SAVE Act. Having a National ID requirement is a distraction. Listen to the video which he accurately describes what the threat is—kicking US citizens off the voter rolls via an inaccurate DHS system, and then they have a short window of time to re-register.
