* **Topic**:
* In this talk, we will discuss how digital transnational repression impacts refugee and immigrant communities in Canada. This talk is inspired by the Citizen Lab's [recent report](https://citizenlab.ca/2022/03/psychological-emotional-war-digital-transnational-repression-canada/) on the issue.
* **Speakers**:
Siena Anstis is Senior Legal Advisor at the Citizen Lab. Previously, she clerked at the Supreme Court of Canada and the Court of Appeal for Ontario and worked as a litigation attorney in New York and a refugee lawyer in Toronto.
* Noura Aljizawi is a research Officer at the Citizen Lab at Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy, University of Toronto. Her work takes an in-depth look at digital transnational repression, digital authoritarianism and human rights and digital surveillance more broadly. She holds a Master's degree in Global Affairs from the University of Toronto, Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy.
