My approach on this would be to defuse and de-escalate while defending. We need to do all of that at the same time.
I want to talk a little bit about the cybersecurity aspect as well as the traditional security aspect and election interference. Before the 2020 presidential election, there were overt and aggressive signs that China was wanting to or willing to or actually engaging in interference in the Taiwan election. It didn't work. The president was re-elected and the status quo remained.
Are there some tools or techniques that Taiwan has developed to counter misinformation and election interference—the kinds of activities we're worried about in Canada as well—that we can learn from?
I'll go to Professor Lam first, and then Mr. Robertson.
