Subject field(s)
  • National and International Security
  • CBRNE Operations
CONT

Based on past examples, the type of CBRN [chemical, biological, radiological or nuclear] terrorist incident most likely to be experienced by Canada in future is a hoax or threat rather than an actual attack, or a relatively low-level instance of product contamination rather than a mass-casualty outrage.

  • Sécurité nationale et internationale
  • Opérations CBRNE
CONT

Si l'on se fonde sur les exemples antérieurs, le type d'acte de terrorisme chimique, biologique, radiologique ou nucléaire que le Canada risque le plus de connaître à l'avenir est un canular ou une menace plutôt qu'un véritable attentat, ou un cas relativement mineur de contamination de produits plutôt qu'une atrocité faisant un grand nombre de victimes.
