Bio:
Dr. David Harries, a nuclear engineer, former senior military officer, consultant on personal and corporate security, and advisor and professor in heavy engineering, national development, humanitarian aid, post-conflict and post-disaster response and recovery, and in executive development in strategic foresight.

Talk Summary:
The abysmal state of Canada’s national security was fully exposed for the first time in an Ottawa speech in November 2022. This ‘inflexion point’ was sharpened in 2023 by a host of events confirming the sorry state of Canada’s will, ways and means to protect its sovereignty. The presentation shows major reasons for the situation, and the consequences in place and foreseeable. It will argue that, without major, unprecedented changes to government and DND/CF narratives, the future for Canada’s sovereignty can only worsen. Suggestions of changes are offered.
