From the Cambridge Analytica scandal to overloaded internet voting
servers to faulty voting machines, the growing relationship between
democracy and technology has brought to light the challenges
associated with integrating new digital tools into the electoral
system. Canadian politics has also felt the impact of this
migration online. This timely book presents the first comprehensive
study of the various cyber-threats to election integrity across
Canadian jurisdictions. Scrutinizing the events of the 2019 federal
election, Cyber-Threats to Canadian Democracy examines how new
technologies have affected the practice of electoral politics and
what we can do to strengthen future Canadian elections. Through the
disciplines of political science, law, computer science,
engineering, communications, and others, chapters shed light on
some of the most contentious issues around technology and electoral
integrity. The contributors address current domestic and foreign
threats to Canadian elections, evaluate the behaviour of actors
ranging from political parties and interest groups to policymakers
and election administrators, and assess emerging legal and
regulatory responses while anticipating future challenges to the
quality of elections in Canada and around the globe. Cyber-Threats
to Canadian Democracy helps seed the study of digital
technology’s security risks, providing insight into what reforms
are needed and evaluating existing legal and policy frameworks in
light of these threats.
