The Canadian military plans to scrap a controversial policy that required its members to report all incidents of sexual misconduct or racism — regardless of whether they were directly affected by them — the Department of National Defence announced Wednesday.
"It was an inflexible and inhuman way to manage people," said Lt.-Gen. Jennie Carignan, the military's chief of professional conduct and culture.
"It was thought that duty-to-report could help ensure that incidents were not ignored or minimized, and that it would enhance protections for survivors," Carignan said Wednesday in her opening statement during a virtual media availability. The military did not permit media outlets to broadcast the event.
