The Romeo Section is a Canadian spy thriller television series created and written by Chris Haddock which debuted on October 14, 2015,[1] on CBC Television. The series follows spymaster Professor Wolfgang McGee, an academic who secretly manages a roster of espionage assets. These assets, referred to as Romeo or Juliet spies, are informants engaged in intimate relations with intelligence targets. Wolfgang himself is a semi-retired Romeo operator, having worked his way up in an officially deniable "service" under the umbrella of Canada's intelligence community. Wolfgang is based in Vancouver,[2] British Columbia whose underside acts as a haven for drug barons, fugitives and covert financiers.[3]
