ReplyDeleteYes indeed. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteStrongly suggest that the issue of “sexual misconduct” in the Canadian military be added to the stories to be followed. The Canadian military has yet to come to grips, in a real, clear and meaningful manner, with the sensible recommendations made by retired Madam Justice Marie Deschamps of the Supreme Court of Canada. This is a ‘front burner’ issue in Canada! An issue which will, once again, gather significant national media coverage (if and) when there is next another reported instance or incidence of sexual misconduct either at the Royal Military College (RMC) or elsewhere in the Canadian Forces. An issue which will also likely command national political attention when Parliament resumes operations in the wake of the October 19, 2015 General Election.
ReplyDeleteAnother very appropriate nomination. Any others?
