I would say two things. I think that Russia is in a slightly difficult position in engaging in disinformation operations against Canada. Some of this was pointed out in the CSIS assessment, which I'd encourage members of the committee to read because I think it's a good overview document. Part of the problem is that there is not a lot of sympathy for Russian positions on issues in Canada across the board, particularly in the aftermath of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Also, the Russian diaspora is not a unified entity within Canada. It contains many kind of diverse groups, including groups like the Russian Canadian Democratic Alliance, that are very much in opposition to the Putin regime, so they don't have a big diaspora base to work on and they don't have sympathies they can draw on.
Against that is the fact that the Russians are past masters at disinformation or propaganda operations. They devote a lot of resources to these. They have almost unlimited resources in terms of money, personnel and cyber-capabilities to try to engage in disinformation operations. They just start from a weaker base when it comes to targeting Canada, I would say.
