Glen Greenwald speaks in Ottawa
October 25, 2014
Pulitzer-prize winning journalist Glenn Greenwald is coming to Canada to speak about privacy, state surveillance, and its impact on Canadians at an event sponsored by rabble.ca and produced by Bill Owen of Eyestir Communications. Mr Greenwald is an American journalist, lawyer, and author, who is best known for his extensive reporting on the Edward Snowden NSA documents. His reporting exposed how spy agencies like Canada's CSEC and the U.S. NSA are conducting invasive surveillance of law-abiding citizens on a massive scale. Greenwald has worked with the CBC to reveal how CSEC monitored thousands of innocent Canadian air travellers, spied on Brazil's mining ministry, and facilitated a large U.S. spying operation on Canadian soil.
The talk will be followed by a discussion moderated by journalist Jesse Brown.
