cbc's broadcasting a new show, intelligence. it's a pity that awareness of it
is still very much restricted to a small group.
the premise of the show is the collaboration between the director of a
criminal intelligence unit and a major narcotics trafficker/distributor.
set in canada in the post 9/11 area, paranoia is pervading branches of
governement. the world seems to grow more wild and treacherous day by day.
relations with the us have deteriorated and the sense of something looming
prompts the security and law-enforcement departments to press for a canadian
foreign intelligence agency, something the country's never really had before.
to get this operation underway, a new approach is needed and potential
intelligence assets need to be developed. specifically: relationships with
criminals who, by there very nature, are involved and linked to shady networks
with a global reach. and that's a deep rabbits hole to walk into.
