Bruce Schneier has published an updated list of upcoming speaking engagements, with two Canadian stops noted. On Wednesday, October 21, 2026, he is scheduled to speak at ATTENTION: Democracy, Rebuilt in Montreal, a conference running from October 21 through October 23. The listing also mentions a separate engagement at the University of Toronto, but provides no date or topic.
The source is a bare schedule, so it does not include talk titles, themes, or other specifics. The Montreal event's name suggests a focus on democratic institutions and technology, which aligns with Schneier's long-standing interest in the intersection of security, privacy, and governance, but the listing itself makes no such claim.
Readers looking for more detail will need to check the conference program or Schneier's site closer to the dates. As with any public schedule, changes are possible, and the University of Toronto entry appears incomplete in the source.{
