Canada’s Terror Threat: The Unfinished Battle with Phil Gurski

<p>Is Canada doing enough to confront the terrorist threat, and what has the West failed to learn from more than two decades of counterterrorism operations?</p><p>This week on <em>The Watch Floor</em>, I’m joined by Phil Gurski, a 32-year veteran of Canada’s intelligence community, former analyst with the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) and Communications Security Establishment (CSE), author, and host of <em>Canadian Intelligence Eh!</em></p><p>We discuss his newest book, <em>9/11: The Unfinished Battle</em>, and why the threat from jihadist terrorism is far from over. Our conversation examines the terrorist threat facing Canada, the consequences of releasing convicted terrorists back into society, the role of social networks in radicalization, and how accusations of Islamophobia can complicate legitimate terrorism investigations.</p><p>We also discuss the loss of experienced intelligence professionals, the consequences of Western counterterrorism policies, and why understanding how terrorist organizations recruit, operate, and adapt remains critical to preventing future attacks.</p><p>Phil brings decades of intelligence experience and a Canadian perspective to a threat that extends well beyond Canada&#39;s borders.</p><p><strong>Learn More About Phil Gurski</strong></p><p>📖 <strong>Buy Phil&#39;s New Book:</strong> <em>9/11: The Unfinished Battle: Why Jihadi Terrorism Is Stronger, Wider, and Far From Over</em></p><p><a href="https://a.co/d/06MexgNF">https://a.co/d/06MexgNF</a></p><p>🎙️ <strong>Listen to Canadian Intelligence Eh!</strong></p><p>Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/4NTG9pHoct7Rtuhq0cXmsY">https://open.spotify.com/show/4NTG9pHoct7Rtuhq0cXmsY</a></p><p>Apple Podcasts: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/canadian-intelligence-eh/id1455756173">https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/canadian-intelligence-eh/id1455756173</a></p><p>Podcast Archive: <a href="https://borealisthreatandrisk.com/category/podcast/">https://borealisthreatandrisk.com/category/podcast/</a></p><p><strong>Connect with Phil</strong></p><p>Website: <a href="https://borealisthreatandrisk.com/">https://borealisthreatandrisk.com/</a></p><p>X: <a href="https://twitter.com/borealissaves">https://twitter.com/borealissaves</a></p><p>LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/phil-gurski-8942468/">https://www.linkedin.com/in/phil-gurski-8942468/</a></p><p><br></p><p>#TheWatchFloor #PhilGurski #Counterterrorism #CanadianIntelligence #NationalSec
