Returning guest Brian Isted joins Liam on the Blendr Report to walk through four stories: a Canadian institution that has lost the ability to defend itself. The leaked CAF report on an 83% non-citizen officer training platoon. General Jennie Carignan's 300,000-warfighter mobilization plan. The hybrid war already underway through fentanyl, bot farms, and disinformation. And Meta's overnight purge of millions of bot accounts. Brian spent 11 years inside the Canadian Armed Forces as a junior officer. He deployed to Iraq and worked for the Canadian Forces Intelligence Command.
