As of January 2024, Christian Leuprecht is a professor at the Royal Military College of Canada, affiliated with Queen’s University,[1] and a fellow of the MacDonald Laurier Institute[2]. Leuprecht's opinions on politics and combating terrorism have been mentioned several times by the popular press.[1][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]

On January 13, 2016, CBC News quoted comments Leprecht as having suggested that the Taliban had released Colin Rutherford (a Canadian who was visiting antiquities in Afghanistan, released after being a Taliban prisoner for 6 years) as a sign of good faith, in order to win a place at the peace talk table. He pointed out the brutal way Daesh[10] executes prisoners, and asserted the Taliban wanted to remind those negotiating peace that they weren't brutal in the same way they were.

“[The release of Rutherford] is a tacit way for the Afghan Taliban to signal that 'We’re not just the bad guys anymore. We might have taken him hostage, but we didn’t execute him, we didn’t mistreat him.’ It's a way of signalling to the world community that, look, 'Maybe you should be talking to us.’”[3][1]

On January 6, 2016, CTV News quoted Leuprecht about the accidental leak of one thousand classified documents.[11] Leuprecht urged a restrained reaction, asserting secret documents often didn't merit classification.

On November 14, 2015, the Calgary Herald quoted Leuprecht's opinion on how Canadians would react to a recent massacre of innocent civilians by Islamist radicals in Paris, France.[12] Leurecht predicted it would make Canadians "rethink our schedule" on admitting refugees. He urged consideration of slowing the rate of admission of refugees, and consideration of detaining all refugees, once they arrived in Canada, to allow a further security checks. Andrew Mitrovica devoted a column to challenging Leuprecht.[13]
