Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Wednesday that his office knew back in 2018 that Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan had passed an allegation against Gen. Jonathan Vance to the Privy Council Office.

But Trudeau says he only learned the details through recent news reports.
“In 2018 my office was aware of the minister’s direction to the ombudsman,”

Trudeau said during a heated opening exchange in question period that saw him face repeated questions on the matter.

“But my office and I learned of the details of the allegation through news reports in recent months.”

A recently released document shows the number of reported incidents is on the rise. It could be a sign that victims feel more comfortable coming forward and as Mike Le Couteur explains, the problem could be more extensive and more well known than those in authority are willing to admit.
