Distributed Security as Cyber Strategy:
by Ron Deibert
A new research paper by Ron Deibert,
director of the Canada Centre for Global
Security Studies at the Munk School of
Global Affairs, reviews the world of
cyber security through a global
perspective. The paper argues that
cyber security is essential to a
democratic country, as without a global
communications network Canadians cannot
communicate and share ideas freely,
which is a critical component of its
democratic system.
by Andrew Godefroy
After nearly a decade of military
commitment to war, counterinsurgency,
and stability operations in Afghanistan
and elsewhere, the Canadian government
in 2010 initiated a shift in its
national security and economic policies
that would ultimately lead to a
significant contraction in the total
level of funding invested in national
defence, thus giving rise to the
Canadian Forces Transformation Team
(CFTT) under the direction of Gen.
Andrew Leslie.
When the team produced its final Report
on Transformation it appeared draconian
and invited immediate criticism.
However, Andrew Godefroy argues that
despite all of the criticism the report
will likely be adopted.

Operations Security and the Public’s
Need to Know
In a new Research Paper from Sharon
Hobson, CDFAI Research Fellow and
Canadian correspondent for Jane's
Defence Weekly, entitled Operations
Security and the Public’s Need to know.
The question is asked, is there “a
disconnect between the public’s need to
know and the military’s culture of
secrecy”? Hobson says yes.

Putting the Canadian Forces Report on
Transformation 2011 in Context
2011 Papers
David Bercuson, Senior CDFAI Research
Fellow and J.L. Granatstein, Senior
CDFAI Research Fellow, examine Canada's
decade long involvement in Afghanistan.
During this time the Canadian Forces
suffered substantial casualties. The
country's military and political
leadership learned on the job about the
costs of war, the intractability of
counterinsurgency warfare and the
difficulties of managing an increasingly
unpopular conflict through a long period
of domestic political turmoil. But what
did Canada learn?
