Download or read book Stand on Guard written by Stephanie Carvin and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2021-06-01 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Stand on Guard, Stephanie Carvin sets out to explain the range of activities considered national security threats by Canadian security services today. As new forms of terrorism and extremism appear, especially online, we need a responsibly widened view of such threats and how they manifest in the contemporary world. Canadians should not be more fearful, Carvin explains, but a more sophisticated understanding among security services personnel and the general public is needed if we are to anticipate and ameliorate threats to national security. As a former security analyst tasked with providing threat assessments to high levels of government, Carvin writes with both authority and urgency. Her book presents an insider’s look at the issues facing the Canadian security and intelligence community. Timely and accessible, Stand on Guard will be required reading for scholars, practitioners, and any Canadian concerned about national security in the twenty-first century.

Download or read book We Stand on Guard for Whom written by Engler and published by . This book was released on 2020-10 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We Stand on Guard for Whom? is the first book to present a history of the Canadian military from the perspective of its victims. In his eleventh book, Yves Engler, the prolific author and critic of Canadian politics, exposes the reality of Canadian wars, repression, and military culture despite the mythologies of Canada as an agent for international peacekeeping and humanitarianism. Originating as a British force that brutally dispossessed First Nations, the Canadian Forces regularly quelled labor unrest in the decades after Confederation. It would go on to participate in military occupations or invasions in Sudan, South Africa, Europe, Korea, Iraq, Serbia, Afghanistan, and Libya, as well as Canadian gunboat diplomacy and UN deployments that have ousted elected governments. As the federal government department with by far the greatest budget, staff, PR machine, and intelligence-gathering capacities, this book shows how the Canadian military is a key developer of military technology, including chemical, biological, and nuclear weapons. It also has an immense ecological footprint and a toxic patriarchal, racist, and anti-democratic culture. However, as this book shows, Canadian militarism has always been contested, as early as opposition to conscription during World War I and as especially during peace activism against the US war in Indochina. More recently, city councils have declared themselves nuclear weapons free zones and prevented hosting of weapons bazaars and, in 2003, antiwar activists stopped Prime Minister Jean Chrétien from leading Canada into the US-led invasion of Iraq. This book reveals the hidden militarism in Canadian life and reminds us that the first step to contest it is to recognize its pervasiveness and power.

Download or read book On Guard written by Daniel E. Harris and published by . This book was released on 2020-10-16 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a breezy and sometimes funny kind of leadership book. It uses storytelling to highlight memorable and challenging leadership concepts presented in an easy-to-read fashion. Highlighting epic events like 9/11, Superstorm Sandy, Hurricane Katrina and soldier deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan, the author discusses leadership concepts in a straightforward and understandable way. Since there is nothing new under the sun, why are so many leaders confused and baffled in certain situations? Why do leaders have problems making decisions about weather-related events? Why do they blunder when issuing judgments about developments like aggression and power struggles? Why is there always floundering when dealing with pandemics like SARS, Ebola and COVID-19? Why do bad business mergers, economic depressions and massive civil unrest occur, when they very easily could be prevented? These, and many other like-minded questions, are answered in this book. When leaders: -are not selfless, -are not well read or good students of history-do not have a diversified leadership tool box-are fearful of making crucial decisions-do not listen, and/or-are not intelligent (do not have the ability to make associations from two or more unrelated events/situations)......CHAOS inevitably ensues!This book sheds light on these topics and gives you the ammunition to deal with what have become some of life's biggest challenges.
