Show Notes

With so much written about terrorism these days it is easy to forget that there is actual counter terrorism work to be done.  Identifying terrorists, following them, interviewing them, stopping them - this is real CT work.  Borealis talks with veteran FBI agent Brig Barker about his years helping to prevent terrorist attacks.

Brig Barker is a proven counterterrorism agent/supervisor/senior level manager, with numerous extended deployments to the Middle East and Africa. 26 years of U.S. government and military operational experience working in both domestic and overseas environments.

Phil Gurski is the President and CEO of Borealis Threat and Risk Consulting Ltd. and Programme Director for the Security, Economics and Technology (SET) hub at the University of Ottawa’s Professional Development Institute (PDI). He worked as a senior strategic analyst at CSIS (Canadian Security Intelligence Service) from 2001-2015, specializing in violent Islamist-inspired homegrown terrorism and radicalisation.
