Canada's military a "broken system" and a "liability" to the country, report finds | FULL

The top ranks of the Canadian Armed Forces are “incapable” of recognizing the “deficient” parts of a culture that keep sexual misconduct and abuse of power entrenched, according to the findings of a blistering new report.

That highly-anticipated report into the culture of the Canadian Forces from former Supreme Court of Canada Justice Louise Arbour was released on Monday, exactly one year after the review formally began in May 2021.

"The handling of sexual offences by military court over the last 20 years has done very little to improve efficiency, discipline and morale. If anything, it has served to erode it," said Arbour.

Global News first brought to light allegations in February 2021 of sexual misconduct against senior leaders in the Canadian Forces — the first of dozens of exclusive reports into such allegations and the military’s handling of them over the past 18 months.

Those revelations and the courage of survivors and victims who spoke out spurred a political and societal reckoning that remains underway to this day.
