Defence Deconstructed: How to Enable Connectivity

The CGAI Podcast Network

On today’s episode of Defence Deconstructed, we have a Triple Helix two-parter for you. First, you’ll hear Dave Perry speaks with our fellow and former Commander of the Royal Canadian Navy Vice Admiral Ron Lloyd about digital transformation and where the barriers lie. Today, we’ll focus on Canada’s classification system. Read Ron's paper on Canada's classification framework here: https://www.cgai.ca/canadas_security_classification_framework_the_biggest_impediment_to_realizing_our_digital_ambition Then, you’ll hear a panel discussion on enabling connectivity for NORAD modernization between our Triple Helix post-doctoral fellow Dr. Alexander Salt, Chief of Staff to the then named Digital Transformation Office Major-General Christopher Zimmer, Senior Counselor at Palantir Technologies Shon Manasco, and Co-Director of Triple Helix and Associate Professor at the Norman Paterson School of International Affairs Dr. Alex Wilner. That conversation was a panel from Triple Helix’s first annual conference, which took place on May 1, 2024. This event was made possible thanks to the support of the Department of National Defence’s MINDS program, CGAI’s strategic sponsors Lockheed Martin Canada, General Dynamics, Hanwha Ocean and Defence, and Cenovus, as well as the American Chamber of Commerce in Canada, reception sponsor L3Harris Technologies, and coffee break sponsor Bell.
