Activities by hostile states are detrimental to Canada's economic, industrial, military and technological advantage, and have a corrosive effect on our democratic systems and institutions. Interference by foreign spies, or people acting on their behalf, remains the greatest danger.

À l'aide des réseaux sociaux, certains États hostiles cherchent à modifier la perception de citoyens afin que ceux-ci puissent militer en faveur des intérêts d’un État tiers. Pour les démocraties, la lutte contre la désinformation et la confrontation intellectuelle visant à démobiliser les électeurs est un phénomène complexe. 1, record 1, French, - %C3%89tat%20hostile

Le féminisme universaliste est [...] apparu en Belgique et en France dans les années 1960. À l'époque, il est considéré comme «radical» puisqu'il revendique l'égalité stricte des droits entre les hommes et les femmes et remet en cause directement le système patriarcal. [...] Les féministes universalistes voient dans le mouvement intersectionnel les dangers du communautarisme et d’un repli identitaire. Pour elles, il est possible de militer pour toutes les femmes du monde. Les intérêts collectifs des femmes passent avant celui des communautés. 2, record 2, French, - f%C3%A9minisme%20universaliste
