How Trump sharing intel with Russia could create an 'intelligence vacuum' and put Canadians at riskmore stories from this episodeFull EpisodeIntelligence officials are on edge after an explosive Washington Post report that U.S. President Donald Trump shared highly classified information with Russia. As a result, it's going to create sort of an intelligence vacuum for all the allies. So it's going to create a vacuum, it's going to mean there's not as much co-ordination as there has been, and it's going to reduce the effectiveness of intelligence sharing.

And if that happens it may actually put some of our people at risk because they're going to be taking chances that they wouldn't have otherwise taken.
