In this emergency episode, the team examines the deadly attack targeting ILO's Montreal headquarters and what it reveals about Canada's evolving extremist threat landscape. They unpack the perpetrator's manifesto, the convergence of misogynistic, anti-capitalist and conspiratorial ideologies, why they believe the attack should be understood as terrorism, and the troubling lack of public and political recognition of misogyny as a driver of violent extremism. The discussion also explores media narratives, prevention efforts, and what Canada must do to better address this growing threat.
