We are hearing a lot, these days, about alleged election interference by the government of the People's Republic of China, and because this is all about spycraft and intelligence, there's much the general public doesn't not - or could not ever -- know. That's a perfect opportunity for political opportunitsts and charlatans to fill in the blanks with that which they wish / want / need to be true to get you to dance to the tune they're calling. Our very special guest today, Mr. Mubin Shaikh*, shares his expertise in order to help us sift through the narratives. He'll gives us some civics insight, as well some media and political literacy, to equip us with critical thinking guideposts, so as to not have the wool pulled over our eyes.

No one understands terrorism-from both the Muslim and Counterterrorism point of view-better than today's guest, Mubin Shaikh. He's the author of Undercover Jihadi: Inside the Toronto 18-Al Qaeda Inspired, Homegrown Terrorism in the West. But, his wise, enlightened perspective didn't come without life-threatening challenges. He shares his fascinating personal journey, from a little boy in a madrassa to a teen identity crisis, trying to balance his Muslim roots with his Canadian lifestyle, to being bit by the Jihadi bug in years preceding 9/11 and then feeling compelled to travel to the Middle East, where he learned true interpretations of the Koran, not the distorted version of Radical Islamists, to going undercover for the government and foiling the biggest terror plot Canada has ever seen, to founding a counterterrorism company of his own, Fusion Intel. If his story was made into a movie, people would find his courage and breadth of experiences hard to believe-but it is all true.
