Événements Canada

Connexion internationale de Montréal (CIMtl) vous invite à sa troisième causerie vinicole le mercredi 26 février 2025 à partir de 18h. Nous discuterons des enjeux croissants de l'ingérence étrangère au Canada, un sujet de préoccupation majeure dans le contexte géopolitique actuel.

Avec l'augmentation des tensions internationales, le Canada a connu une montée des efforts d'influence de la part d'acteurs étrangers, que ce soit par le biais de la désinformation, de la cyberintimidation ou d'autres formes d'interventions.

Au programme :

•    Survol des formes récentes d’ingérence ;
•    Impact sur la démocratie, les droits citoyens et la sécurité nationale ;
•    Responsabilités des acteurs et mesures préventives ;
•    Recommandations pour renforcer les protections et prévenir les incidents.

Alexandre Veilleux, conseiller en recherche et communications à la Fondation Asie Pacifique du Canada, fera partie du panel.
 

The Asia Pacific Foundation of Canada will co-organize a roundtable discussion with Konrad Adenauer Stiftung (KAS) focused on U.S. President Donald Trump's disruptions to the global trading and economic orders. 

By invitation-only.

A winner and nominee of several international documentary awards, this film shed a light on the bravery of freedom fighters in Taiwan who have safeguarded their autonomy and democratic way of life, despite enduring decades of external threats and relentless military harassment. 

The screening will be followed by a networking reception, featuring remarks from Vina Nadjibulla, Vice-President Research & Strategy, Asia Pacific Foundation of Canada.

Celebrating its 93rd edition in 2025, the Ottawa Conference stands as Canada’s premier defence and security assembly. The conference centres its discussions around a wide spectrum of security and defence matters, orchestrating a sequence of impactful keynotes, presentations, and dialogues led by distinguished experts in the fields of security and defence from Canada and across the globe. 

The audience consists of senior decision-makers in government, thought leaders in academia and civil society, and industry leaders. The event brings together Parliamentarians and reaches deep into the Department of National Defence, with a strong showing of general and flag officers. Many other key segments of government also attend from the Prime Minister’s Office, the Privy Council, Global Affairs Canada, PSPC, Treasury Board, Canadian Coast Guard, Public Safety, and over 20 other government departments and agencies.

APF Canada's Vice-President Research & Strategy Vina Nadjibulla is a featured speaker on Day 2 (1:25-2:30 p.m. ET) on Panel 8: Challenges and Readiness in the Indo-Pacific.

The Asia Pacific Foundation of Canada is hosting a talk with Pia Ranada, head of community for Rappler, a Philippines news organization, and winner of the 2024 Marshall McLuhan Award. Previously, Pia was an investigative journalist and senior reporter who covered the Duterte administration (2016-2022). As Community Lead, she is now responsible for linking journalists with communities for impact and action.  

The Embassy of Canada in the Philippines awarded her the Marshall McLuhan Fellowship in November for her “exceptional commitment to journalism, using the craft to build citizens with critical information that can impact societal change” and her commitment to inform, “to enable meaningful public engagement on issues in service of the public, and illustrate how investigations, facts, and transparency can ensure meaningful democratic accountability.”

Pia will discuss how the journalist’s role is expanding beyond reporting to include creating impactful solutions to social challenges and how journalism can be more than truth-telling but also as advocacy for collaborative action. Learn more about Pia here.
