BIO
Biography
I am a 32-year retired veteran of Canada's intelligence community (CSE, CSIS and OPP-PATS) and a specialist in terrorism, intelligence analysis and national security. To date, I have published six books on terrorism (all available on Amazon.ca), one-self-published book on soldiers from Russell, ON in WWI, and two pending books on terrorism in 2o26. I regularly podcast on national security (Canadian Intelligence Eh! and Mission Possible).
