The World’s intelligence agencies have long suffered from a perspective they’re too secretive. That’s not just the stuff of Hollywood movies and books, these are real perceptions backed by studies and reviews critical of the communications in those agencies. They all conclude there’s a need to be more intelligent about Intelligence.

The degree of secrecy in these Agencies has always been a delicate balance. But there are many today who say the level of secrecy in intelligence is a symptom of increasing obsolescence as well as an obstacle to reform.

In this episode we talk with a former analyst at two of Canada’s intelligence agencies, The Communications Security Establishment (CSE) and Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) to get his perspective on how a refreshed view of communication practice might make a world of difference.
