National Security Education in Canada

This project asked the question: How are police officers trained in national security in Canada?
What can the process of studying national security education in Canada tell us about national
security itself? We conclude that national security education in Canada takes care to avoid
racial profiling and stay within the confines of law, there are still issues related to the use of
indicators, confusion over audience, and problematic pedagogies. Further, research in this field
is hampered by secrecy and gatekeeping, which makes drawing conclusions particularly
challenging.
