Audio from our September 10, 2019 Policy Matters panel.

Since the 2016 U.S. presidential election, there has been increased concern about the threat of malicious actors influencing the 2019 Canadian federal election. In an April report, the Communication Security Establishment (CSE) warned that it is “very likely that Canadian voters will encounter some form of foreign cyber interference related to the 2019 federal election.”  What does this mean for voters, politicians, and political organizations during this fall’s campaign?  What should voters be wary about when reading political news?

This panel discussion brings together experts in social media analytics, political media manipulation, political reporting and elections security to talk about what we can expect during election 2019.
