Murray Brewster takes the story through another news cycle here. This is smart coverage of the Canadian Armed Forces' unfolding train wreck. Excerpt:
Time to retire Operation Honour?
Military law experts in Canada and U.S. have noted that it might be very difficult for the Canadian military to court-martial senior military leaders because the process requires a jury or panel made up of officers with rank equal to or higher than that of the accused.
As for Operation Honour, [Acting Chief of Defence Staff Lt.-Gen. Wayne] Eyre said he's heard from many that "maybe this operation has culminated and we need to harvest what has worked from there and learn from what hasn't and go forward with a deliberate change plan."
Eyre's testimony is important because it gives the first public indication of how the military plans to chart its way out of the crisis — and suggests there could be more sordid revelations to come.
Uh-oh.
