Why This Conversation Matters
The United States and Canada have long shared more than just a border—they are partners in trade, security, and democratic values. Yet, recent years have seen a dramatic shift in the Canadian political landscape. From the rise of government mandates and unprecedented crackdowns on peaceful protest, to the looming uncertainty of Canada’s upcoming elections, the stability and alignment of our northern neighbor is in question.
This webinar will provide an unflinching look at the internal and external forces reshaping Canada. Are Canadian policies and attitudes still in harmony with American interests? What are the risks if Canada’s political direction continues to diverge from its traditional path? And, crucially, could Canada’s internal struggles and external vulnerabilities pose a national security threat to the United States?
Meet the Experts: Ken Abramowitz and Benjamin J. Dichter
Ken Abramowitz is a renowned national security analyst and Chairman of CFNS, known for his clear-eyed assessments of global threats and his commitment to educating the public on issues that matter most for America’s future.
Benjamin J. Dichter brings a unique and critical perspective to this discussion. As the official spokesperson for the 2022 Canadian Freedom Convoy and author of Honking for Freedom, Dichter has been at the forefront of one of the most significant civil movements in recent Canadian history. His firsthand experience with the government’s response to peaceful protest, including the use of emergency powers never before invoked in a Western democracy, offers invaluable insights into the current state of Canadian governance and civil liberties.
Dichter’s work documents how ordinary Canadians, faced with sweeping mandates that threatened their livelihoods, rallied in a non-violent mass demonstration that captured global attention and inspired similar movements in over thirty countries. His analysis goes beyond the headlines, revealing the deeper currents of discontent and the risks posed by authoritarian responses to dissent.
