#8: 404 - Policy Not Found | AI, Foreign Interference & Canada’s 2025 Election with Jennie Phillips

In Episode #8 of 404 Policy Not Found, Alex Tveit and Renee Black are joined by Jennie Phillips of the Media Ecosystem Observatory to unpack what it really takes to monitor an election in the age of AI, foreign interference, polarization, and platform manipulation. Jennie takes us inside the real time monitoring systems designed to protect democratic integrity. This conversation goes beyond fear-based narratives about AI. It highlights the structural incentives, regulatory gaps, and coordination failures that shape modern information ecosystems and what it would take to build true democratic resilience before the next election.
