Manufacturing The Threat

A feature documentary by Amy Miller (2022)

Inspired by the book "Manufacturing threats" by Alexandre Popovic

Manufacturing the Threat is a thrilling and emotional film, which examines a deeply disturbing episode in Canadian history when an impoverished couple was coerced by undercover law enforcement agents into carrying out a terrorist bombing. Shining a light into the murky world of police infiltration, incitement, and agent provocateurs, the film shows how Canada’s policing and national security agencies, granted additional powers after 9/11, routinely break laws with little to no accountability or oversight. The film raises serious questions about the erosion of civil liberties and the potential for abuse of power within these agencies, particularly in the context of counter-terrorism efforts. It's a must-watch for anyone concerned about the balance between security and freedom. This film serves as a stark reminder of the dangers of unchecked government power and the importance of vigilant oversight.
