Summary
"This discussion paper is an outcome of the Study Group’s mission to the United
Kingdom. The paper scopes and defines the problem of radicalization and counterradicalization;
identifies key challenges to building an effective Canadian response
to radicalization; and summarizes the UK context and response to radicalization.
The ultimate purpose of the paper is to identify key lessons learned from the UK
experience that could be used to inform the development of a counter-radicalization
framework for Canada under the auspices of CACP."--page 1.
