“…Although terrorism and radicalization do not have as much salience in Canada as in some countries, it is a concern for security officials (see Crelinsten, 2012; Thompson & Bucerius, 2019; Tishler et al., 2020). Security agencies have struggled to identify returning “foreign fighters” who left Canada to fight for ISIS in Syria and Iraq.…”

“…In the late 1970s, it seemed that international terrorism was replacing communism as the dominant national security threat. 25 Between 1960 and 2015, Canada experienced nearly two thousand acts of terrorism and violent extremism, both at home and abroad, including the tragic bombing of Air India Flight 182. 26 International terrorism is often associated with deeper factors such as the absence of democracy, the absence of a market economy, overpopulation, or the anarchy present in some countries.…”

This paper seeks to understand the nature and characteristics of Canadian national intelligence culture post–Cold War using the analytical insights of the strategic culture and intelligence culture literature. Previous studies have focused on an organizational description or historical studies of Canadian intelligence during the Cold War or after 9/11. Yet, no studies have examined the characterization of a national intelligence culture in Canada and proposed to contextualize the Canadian intelligence system in light of its national intelligence culture. Building on a culturalist approach of national intelligence systems, this paper proposes an operationalization of the national intelligence culture concept drawn on the strategic and intelligence culture literature. The paper concludes that Canada’s national intelligence culture is mostly defensive and minimalist. However, we note that recent changes in the Canadian intelligence apparatus have led to a gradual evolution of Canadian intelligence from defensive to offensive.
