About the event

Shawn Ford, LL.M. participates as a speaker in this live crisis exercise focused on AI under pressure. As governments use automated systems to deliver services, allocate resources and make decisions, the Ottawa edition explores what happens when those decisions face scrutiny, oversight and real-world consequences. Senior decision-makers navigate questions of accountability, transparency, public trust and leadership beyond technical containment.
