OTTAWA — The military's chief of professional conduct and culture says the Canadian Armed Forces will end its"inflexible and inhuman" mandatory reporting policy.
Lt.-Gen. Jennie Carignan says members will still be able to report misconduct, but they will no longer face possible penalties for failing to report something they experience or witness. The change is meant to give victims of sexual misconduct control and agency over the reporting process. It was recommended by former Supreme Court justice Louise Arbour in her May 2022 review of military culture.
Arbour said in her report that in reality, the duty to report has terrorized and revictimized the people it was meant to protect.This report by The Canadian Press was first published Aug. 30, 2023.
